THE BULLPEN

     Sunday, Monday, happy days! Your Pittsburgh Pirates take their show on the road to Milwaukee to battle their division rivals the Brewers in the first of a 3-game series tonight. These are your keys for tonight's game. 1)Last time the Buccos visited Milwaukee, the Brewers swept them out of town. At 79-50 the Pirates have one of the best records in baseball. With a 55-75 record, Milwaukee has one of the worst. You have to beat the good teams and beat up the bad ones. Give 'em a big mug o' Hit, Run, & Score! 2)The Pirates shuffled the rotation a little bit so that RH Gerrit Cole, 15-7, 2.44 ERA starts tonight. This also leaves Cole ready to pitch Sunday night in St Louie. Don't look too far ahead. Watch out for the trap series here. Ride the Cole Train to victory! 3)Milwaukee starts RH Jimmy Nelson, 10-10, 3.81 ERA. Nelson is another one of those mediocre pitchers that has the Bucs' number. It doesn't help that the Pirates are also 21-29 vs NL Central opponents. If you want to win the division, you have to beat the division. TCB, Take Care of Business! Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
