Yeah, you're used to that. But this goes a little further.

They didn't lose to major league team.

They didn't lose to a minor league team.

They didn't lose to a well-trained foreign national team.

They lost to a college team.

At the end of a spring training.

At home.

A community college team.

Dark day for alliterating arms, with Virgil Vazquez and the delightfully denoted David Davidson forfeiting five.

I like how Manatee C.C. appears to have treated the game as more of an exhibition than the Pirates did, using 9 different pitchers for an inning apiece.

looks like their minor league roster. still pretty sad though. the CC's use of pitchers is interesting though. each guy gets one inning.
