Bucco fever, catch it! Your Pittsburgh Pirates close out their series with the Braves in Atlanta tonight. These are your keys to tonight's game. 1)The Pirates go with RH Edinson Volquez, 12-7, 3.15 ERA. Atlanta answers with RH David Hale, 4-4, 3.27 ERA. Eddy is 4-0 with a 1.53 ERA in his last 9 starts. Following last night's 6-2 loss, the Pirates need to get back in the win column by steadying the ship. Steady Eddy! 2)Through their last 10 games the Bucs are 8-2 while the Braves are 2-8. Kick 'em while they're down! 3)The Pirates haven't scored more than 3 runs in a game since winning 4-2 last Friday night against Milwaukee. The Buccos' bats need to wake up. It's tough in the spacious surroundings of Turner Field, it's true. But they have to make hay while the sun shines. The opportunity was there last night, both St Louie & San Fran lost. Unfortunately, so did our Pirates. Today is another day to make that hay. St Louie doesn't play. Break out the bats with some Hit, Run, & Score! Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
