[LoneStarPhan]

Not a good start for Knebel.

HBP followed by a 4 pitch walk.

Setting up a Pirate come back. Starting them off with two runners is a huge advantage for Pittsburgh. Now we see if Knebel has what it takes.

[LoneStarPhan]

Again, Knebel gets himself into some trouble and then pitches out of the inning without a run scoring. While I'd prefer a clean inning, results do matter. Scoreless inning desired, and scoreless inning delivered.

[HopeSpringsEternal]

Now we see if Knebel has what it takes.

You da man, Corey!
