THE BULLPEN

     Hey batter, batter, batter, batter! Our Pittsburgh Pirates take their show on the road to Texas tonight when they open a 3-game set with the Rangers. These are your keys for tonight's game. 1)With yesterday's 8-3 downing of the DBags, the Pirates not only swept the Snakes back to AZ but also won their 4th straight. #5 would be great! 2)During the Buccos winning streak, they've scored 31 runs. There's always room for more Hit, Run & Score! 3)The Pirates send LH Jon Niese, 4-2, 4.75 ERA to the mound. The Rangers start LH Cole Hamels, 5-0, 2.83 ERA. Hamels is due for a loss. Give him L! Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
