Two seconds after it hit me that Moss was going to hit the walk off to change that score to 8-7

Rumbunter photo crew snaps this picture two seconds after I heard the voice, 'heh, dumbass with the camera, take a picture cuz Moss is about to end this game. (At the same time I snap the picture, an ass clown behind us says, ''the bus is warming up for Altoona Moss!")

Brandon Moss hit the first walkoff homerun of his life yesterday.  He saved it for a great occassion as the Pirates took two of three from the Brewers at PNC Park. 

Moss was on Rocco DeMaro’s post game show today. He said he is going to hit at least 15 homeruns for his grandfather.

And the Rumbunter exclusively horrible video and pictures follow from the Pirates thrilling 8-7 victory at PNC Park yesterday.  I figure bad pictures and bad video are better than bad words anyday.

OH yeh, 1B LaRoche was traded for the best defensive shortstop in our minor league system. “Argenis Diaz is an elite defensive shortstop, and if he improves his concentration on routine plays, he could compete for a gold glove in the bigs right now. He has plus range, excellent footing, an impressive glove, and an outstanding arm. Makes impossible plays in the field. However, he does make a lot of errors on off-the-mark long throws off of grounders that he has no business getting to in the first place. He also really struggles with routine plays on occasion, almost as if he has a mental block. That is a definite area in need of improvement. The other key for Diaz is how much he will hit. He’s a slap hitter with below average to average on base ability and without much power, but he’s swung the bat very well during a few prolonged stints here and there. Good bat speed through the zone. Struggles with advanced off-speed stuff. Can show lack of plate discipline in stretches. Hits lefties significantly better than righties. Excellent at laying down bunts. Won’t steal a lot of bases.  DiazSox Prospect Link
