Pittsburgh Pirates 2 - Philadelphia Phillies 2

[Patchmk88]

Here comes another loss. Not sure why Vargas is still in the game.

[LoneStarPhan]

Perhaps they are pushing Vargas too far. There goes the lead and it looks like the Phillies offense has already shut down for the night.

I will say that the ground ball to start the inning looked like a routine ground out but then they switch to the ball going to left and I see there was no fielder near the ball.

Why is Hernandez in for Kingery? Was he hurt?

And why is Vargas still in the game?

[Patchmk88]

Kapler is just a clown. Vargas has been getting hit pretty hard all night but has gotten lucky that most balls have been at our fielders. Why is he still in the game after two straight hits to start the 7th?
