Padres lay down against the Pirates 5-1

Let me think about this. Record-wise, the Pirates are the second worst team in baseball. They've lost 8 of their last 10. And yet, they throw five up on us like it ain't no thing?

If the Padres are going to be competitive in 2010, they need to learn how to not only play up to their competition, but not come back down against a team who they should be able to beat handily. That is my strategic advice.


Final - 9.18.2009 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
San Diego Padres 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 6 0
Pittsburgh Pirates 3 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 X 5 7 0
WP: Charlie Morton (4 - 8)
LP: Tim Stauffer (4 - 7)

lackluster performance tonight, true Eckstein looks tired and Macias shouldn’t be in the majors but still…

Should've had Durango out there

He would’ve caught that triple AND pitched 7 innings of 2-hit baseball.

They sucked

cause they were not playing a contender.

You guys don't know what you're missing

Macias just swung 20 minutes late on 2 fastballs and struck out with a runner on third with 1 out

Again, you guys don't know what you're missing

In his 2nd at bat, Macias just struck out again with a runner on second and 2 outs

C'mon man
