Notes:

 

Series/General Notes:

  • This year's Pirates vs. Reds rivalry has included a lot of hit by pitches. 28 batters were struck between these two teams, so don't be surprised if tempers flair in this game.
  • Johnny Cueto and Francisco Liriano both hail from the Dominican Republic. There is something significant about this, as this is the 3rd time in postseason history where two DR starters face off. The feat was achieved twice by Pedro Martinez and Bartolo Colon in 1999 and 2004.

 

Pirates:

  • Ever since the Pirates hit the 70 win mark, things started to regress a bit, going .500 the rest of the way (24-24). They did, however, make a strong statement at the end of the year winning 5 of their final 6 games of the season.
  • The Pirates had the upper hand this season, going 11-8 against the Reds. They were 5-4 at PNC Park vs. the Reds.
  • Francisco Liriano has been lights out this season at home, going 8-1 with a 1.47 ERA
     

 

Reds:

  • Johnny Cueto has had great success in his career against the Pirates. Actually great is an understatement, he went 13-4 with a 2.37 ERA in 21 starts against Pittsburgh with an even better line at PNC Park of 8-2 with a 1.90 ERA.

Wilnernalysis of this game:

Wat?

 

I'm so tired of him saying that

 

On the one hand I know what he's getting at. (Eg. SP depth means a ton in the regular season, but in the playoffs it's all about having 2-3 top end guys and depth is meaningless). Stuff like that. But the way he says NOTHING, as if it's a different game entirely, is extremely annoying.

Why did we not sign Russel Martin. Cry...

 

Dammit, now they're showing a story on him. He's from Montreal?!?!?! Did Montreal-opoulos know this???

They need to get these old boring guys off the TBS broadcasts. Not helping lure in the young folks or improve TV ratings.

This is going to be a great game. Crowd in Pittsburgh is so pumped.

 

Playoff baseball should be played in full, pumped up ballparks.

Tell that to Tampa. Doubt they get that far though.

 

Yeah. How many win or go home games can you win in a row???

Did he fall into a camera bay?

 

Fell over the metal fence. But no big drop off on either side. Just fell into the fans.
