Bottom of the 6th

Spring is a laid-back time for everyone but a stadium's public-address announcer.

Team's rotate players in and out like 8-track tapes during the sprining, forcing announcers - as well as each team's medial relations people - to keep everyone updated.

There are a host of changes to announce as the Pirates bat in the sixth - Ben Zobrist and Andy Cannizaro swap spots, with Zobrist moving to shor and Cannizaro going to second. Willy Aybar comes in to play third and Justin Ruggiano, who pinch hit in the sixth, is in center.

A mouthful.

Kevin Thompson fans with two on, and the Pirates still trail 5-1.
