Hi there. I just wanted to jump in on this thread to see if anyone actually watches this team. I tried to do it for 1 inning, and it's nearly impossible.

What happened? <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Bo Porter got in a yelling match after inning with Lowrie, telling him "Go back to shortstop."

To get the game over with sooner? If Cosart was still out there, the game would probably still be in the 1st.
Was looking forward to watching this game from 3rd inning on. Walked into the bar and we're already down 8-0. Damn Cosart has regressed. Entered this game with a 4.00 era.... it will rise.
