Aughhh Reduxxx

Posted on May 18, 2013 by Ron Brand in Featured, Game Recaps

I had a different recap mostly written, but revisiting this just felt right.

Pirates 5, Astros 4

contributed by NeilT

Arrr – A variant of arg, of which one usage is an interjection by pirates. It’s derived from English regional dialects adapted to portray Long John Silver by the actor Robert Newton, patron saint of Talk Like a Pirate Day, in the 1950s Walt Disney movie Treasure Island.

Auugh. – a variant of arg, which means to show frustration and despair. Famously used by Charlie Brown, particularly in the context of baseball.

It was a team effort with four errors, but in the end the Astros’ chop-off player of the game had to be Jimmy Paredes, whose outstanding effort saved what could have otherwise been a win. Way to go Jimmy!
