THE BULLPEN

Hey batter, batter, batter! Your Pittsburgh Pirates try to pick up their first win of the second half tonight in Cincy against the Reds. These are your keys to tonight's game. 1)Cincy has scored 3 runs or less in 8 of their last 16 games. Seeing the Reds score makes me see red! 2)Cincy starts RH Matt Latos, 8-3 with a 3.53 ERA. Latos has given up four-plus runs in each of his last 2 starts. Hit him early, hit him often, hit him HARD! 3)Latos is 0-3 versus the Bucs this year. Make it 0-4 with plenty of Hit, Run, & Score! Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
