Today: Pirates-Reds, 8-12-08; Scheppers throws bullpen at PNC

Tue, 12 Aug 2008 21:04:00 +1900

By Deja n Kovacevic | 3:05 p.m. Tuesday If there are lessons to be learned from the early portions of Zach Duke's career - Sean Burnett's, too, to a lesser extent - it is that getting overly excited about a rookie starting pitcher with un-remarkable stuff probably is not a safe investment. Consider, for example, the difference in the two rookie starters tonight: Jeff Karstens, ...

Jeff Karstens Takes Perfect Game Into Eighth Inning, Pitches Two-Hitter

Thu, 7 Aug 2008 16:06:00 +1900

This was my first look at Jeff Karstens as a Pirate, and it was certainly a pleasant introduction, as Karstens took a perfect game into the eighth inning. Karstens was hardly dominant--he kept too many of his pitches up in the zone, which resulted in approximately eight million fly balls to the warning track and a very busy day for centerfielder Jason Michaels . Karstens' stuff wasn't ...

Jeff Karstens gets second gem for Pirates

Thu, 7 Aug 2008 19:08:00 +1900

Jeff Karstens. Remember that name. Last week, the New York Daily News had reported a quote from Pittsburgh Pirates Hall of Famer Bill Mazeroski saying he was stunned the Pirates "traded two of [their] best players for guys [he'd] never heard of. How could [the Pirates] do this?" The two players in question were outfielder Xavier Nady and reliever Damaso Marte, who were shipped from Pittsburgh to the Yankees for outfielder Jose Tabata and pitchers Ross Ohlendorf, Dan McCutchen, and Karstens. ...

The Strange Life of a Pirate Fan

Thu, 7 Aug 2008 17:09:00 +1900

Being a fan of the Pittsburgh Pirates has never been easy. My earliest memories of the team generally involve losing in the NLCS three straight years from 1990-1992 and things have been all downhill from there. With the team trudging towards tying the record for most consecutive losing seasons by an American sports franchise, it probably seems to most outsiders that being a Pirate fan can be ...
