THE BULLPEN

     Buy me some peanuts and crackerjacks! Your Pittsburgh Pirates continue their series against the Chicago Scrubs tonight at PNC Park. These are your keys for tonight's game. 1)Chicago will go with RH Jake Arrieta, 11-6, 2.62 ERA. The Pirates will start newly acquired LH JA Happ, 4-6, 4.64 ERA. Better watch out, Buccos. In 6 career starts vs the Pirates, Arrieta is 4-1 with a 2.43 ERA. Hit him early, hit him often, hit him HARD! 2)The Pirates are 11-2 in their last 13 at the friendly confines of PNC Park. Love that home cookin'! 3)In Sunday's 3-0 win over Cincy, the Pirates managed to win while scratching out only 3 hits. That's not going to cut it against a Chicago team that's nipping at the Bucs heals in the wild card race. We need more, Hit, Run & Score! Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
