The pitcher that gave up the 4 runs, aided by a bad throw from France,, showed why he's a career minor leaguer. I won't bother to learn his name, I just know that it starts with "Boo!"
When 95% of your pitches are on the outside part of the plate, you are telling everyone in the league that you already know that you don't have good enough stuff. Greg Maddux wasn't blowing anyone away, but he still owned that entire plate, up, down, in and out. You could see Pirate hitters diving into his pitches because they caught on very quickly . . . "If he does throw an inside pitch, just take it because he's going right back outside again with his next three or four. Pick out one that you like."
