Wouldn't wanna be a Pirate today.

I don't follow baseball. By the time football season is over I'm toast. But I did listen to the Milwaukee Brewers @ Pittsburgh Pirates game yesterday while writing at the coffee shop. 20-0 Brew Crew.

The ass-whooping set/tied several records: tied the largest margin of victory (22-2 victory over Toronto in 1992 - a game I was at), surpassed the Brewers largest run total in a shutout (18-0 at Boston in 1990) and it was the worst loss for the Pirates in their 124-year history. The 35-run difference was the most in a 3-game series since Detroit outscored Minnesota, 45-10 in 1993.

Let's hope the Brewers didn't shoot their wad as I'll be at Miller Park in Milwaukee Tuesday with the boys to welcome the Pirates for Round 2.
