Ten Pirates Images That Define 3-2 Loss To Athletics

HOPE? I hope we’ve hit the bottom….. Thanks for giving us warm fuzzies.

This would lead to no runs scored by the Pirates.

Ross Ohlendorf attempts a pick off, it doesn’t go as planned and sails past Garrett Jones into foul territory.  Jones throws to third.

Andy LaRoche can’t handle the throw and the Athletics Cliff Pennington scores a run the easy way. Little League style.

The Pirates fifth inning started with a leadoff walk given up by Ross Ohlendorf.

Andrew McCutchen is a fine defensive player in center field, but occassionaly on deep fly balls, even he struggles. He drops this ball in the ugly Pirates fifth inning.  Somehow Oakland only scores one run.

Ross Ohlendorf watches intently as Garrett Jones makes a fine defensive play, but fails to break for the bag….

Ross Ohlendorf can’t beat the runner to the first base bag.

Ross Ohlendorf walks in the second run.

The foul ball Jason Jaramillo failed to catch gave new life to the Athletics.  Kurt Suzuki would hit the game winning home run later in the at bat.
