With roaring winds and torrential rain interrupting Tuesday’s game against the San Diego Padres, stadium workers tried to unroll a tarp as quickly as possible.
Justin Upton, going vertical and a row and a half into the bleachers to rob McCutchen of a home run harder than San Diego was robbed of its football team. Everything is risky, and we should never go outside ever. The Cardinals and Pittsburgh also ranked 1-2 in overall team ERA and also 1-2 for the best records in the majors. “They’re adapting and ever-changing”, he said.
Ishikawa was acquired by the Pirates on waivers after San Francisco designated him for assignment last week.
“It’s good for him”, Clint Hurdle said of the results. The.232-hitting Polanco tripled with two outs, giving the Pirates their fourth straight win. Nonetheless, that was one of the best plays in PNC Park history. Burnett gave up five hits and one run over 7 2/3 innings. Cashner allowed one run on three hits in six innings. He worked two scoreless innings. The at-bat before Kang was the second memorable moment from this one.
It was the first career home run robbery for Upton and the first time McCutchen has been robbed of one, according to ESPN.
When the game resumed, Liriano walked Alonso.
Several more Pirates joined McCutchen and Rodriguez and helped the grounds crew finally get the tarp over the infield.
As seen in the above photo, an outline could be found near third base in the shape of a person, representing the groundskeeper. Alongside the outline read “RIP TARP MAN” and “7.7.2015”, the date of Tuesday’s game.
