THE BULLPEN

     Hit the ball and touch 'em all! Your Pittsburgh Pirates continue their series in St Louie tonight against the NL Central-leading Cardinals. These are your keys for tonight's game. 1)The Cardinals have won all of the last 7 matchups in St Louie. #8 would not be great. Raise the Jolly Roger! 2)The Pirate have managed just 7 runs in the last 5 games in St Louie, going 4 for 39 with runners in scoring position. Against this team you'll need more Hit, Run, & Score! 3)The Pirates put RH Gerrit Cole, 14-5, 2.39 ERA on the mound. St Louie will start RH Michael Wacha, 13-4, 2.92 ERA. Cole continues to look for an MLB-best 15th W. Get on board the Cole Train for a win! Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
