THE BULLPEN

Take me out to the ballgame! Your Pittsburgh Pirates are back home at PNC Park to battle the Milwaukee Boo Crew tonight. These are your keys to tonight's game. 1)After dropping the final two in San Fran, the Pirates look to avoid a 3-game losing streak. I have a good idea, let's start a winning streak! 2)The Pirates have won 4 in a row over the Boo Crew. Keep the streak alive with #5! 3)The Pirates start lefty Jeff Locke. Locke is 9-4 with  3.01 ERA. In his last 6 starts, Locke is 0-2 with a 6.59 ERA and has issued 14 walks in his past 18 innings. I know that Locke rhymes with "walk" but you don't have to drive that point home. Help the kid get #10 with a heaping helping of Hit, Run, & Score! In case you hadn't noticed, I could not refer to the Pirates as "first-place". St Louie beat Cincy last night to go .5 game up on us. Cincy falls to 3.5 back. Take care of business and it will take care of itself. You gotta want it to win it.  Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
