6/9/09 - Pirates 3, Braves 4: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

The Good
  • McLouth scoring from second on an infield single in the 2nd.
  • Chipper continuing to carry the offense. At this rate, he's bound to blow out his back any day not.
  • Francoeur sitting.
  • Bunt for a hit by KJ. Why doesn't he (and Schafer, for that matter) do more of this?
  • Quality start by Lowe (7 IP, 3 R).
  • The Cuban Missile coming through in the clutch again (hitting .411 with RISP, second in the NL) and his throwing play in the 8th after the ball went off Chipper's glove.
  • Gonzo and Soriano shutting the door in the 8th and 9th and looking dominant doing it (2 IP, 0 H, 0 BB, 2 K)
The Bad
  • The player formerly known as Garret Anderson. What happened to his bat speed?
And The Ugly
  • Couldn't find anything here... Any body got one?

    I missed it did he strike out alot or did he just look bad at the plate. I saw he was 1 for 3 thats not terrible

    I'm just tired of complaining about Francoeur when Anderson is arguably just as awful.

    OBP.... JF: .275, GA: .289
    SLG.... JF: .341, GA: .354
    OPS+... JF: 62, GA: 69

    Meanwhile, while they're both flailing away at the plate, at least Francoeur is playing decent defense.
