It seems like some sort of karmic justice that a community college named after a
marine mammal whose population was decimated by sea faring vessels, would
defeat a professional team named after marauders who raped and pillaged aboard them.
From the
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette:
SARASOTA, Fla. -- Virgil Vasquez gave up three runs in 4 2/3 innings, and Dave Davidson was charged with a blown save as a collection of the Pirates' top prospects lost to Manatee Community College, 6-4, at McKechnie Field in Bradenton.
I don't know what this says more about: The game of baseball in general or the Pirates as a franchise. Sure, the Pirates roster consisted of only Single and Double A players, but could you picture that headline with any other team's logo? My heart goes out to you,
DJ Gallo.
