THE BULLPEN

Play ball! Your Pittsburgh Pirates are in Hotlanta to start a series tonight with the Bravos. These are your keys to tonight's game. 1)Reliever Vin Mazzaro has pitched 18 1/3 consecutive shutout innings. Vinnie, Veni, Vidi, Vici! 2)The Braves start RH Kris Medlen who is 1-6 with a 3.48 ERA. Typically, the Pirates make guys like this look like a superstar. Let's see those bats heat up some more in Hotlanta. Score early, score often, score BIG with lots of Hit, Run, & Score! 3)The Pirates have RH A.J. Burnett on the mound. A.J. has a 5-game winless streak, going 0-3 with a 2.91 ERA. During that stretch, the Bucs have only scored 6 runs for A.J. Let's start a Runs for A.J. campaign! I must say, every time the Bucs are in Hotlanta, I'm reminded of the '92 NLCS and more recently, the 19-inning fiasco that ump Jerry Meals let get away. It's time these Pirates make some winning memories for us fans. Tomahawk the Bravos! Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
