Target practice
The Pirates are target practice for the Cardinals. Weaver hit Duffy tonight. Isn't it time a pitcher on the Pirates sent a message to Mr. LaRussa?
In the spring of 1983, Pirates reliever Enrique Romo failed to report to camp. Attempts by the team to locate the enigmatic righty failed, and he was released. Similarly, for 20+ years, Pirates fans were unable to locate their once-proud franchise. This blog, last seen in September 2006, was the record of one father and son who nurtured the hope that one day Romo and the Pirates would phone home. That day arrived seven years hence, and now we are back. Enrique, we salute you, wherever you are.

It appears to me that the Pirate pitchers don't pitch inside. I had hoped that Colburn would bring some aggressiveness with him. I'd surely like to see Snell and Duke pound the inside corner. Let them hit screaming line drives foul to left field. Maybe the ump would actually call an occasional inside strike.
