THE BULLPEN

     Seems I've been living in the temple of the dog! Our Pittsburgh Pirates wrap up their 2 game set in Seattle tonight against the Mariners. These are your keys for tonight's game. 1)As the Pirates schedule ends for the month of June, the team continues to struggle to find the win column following last night's 5-2 loss to the Mariners. Tonight they try to make like a banana and split the series. They'll send rookie RH Jameson Taillon, 1-1, 4.50 ERA, to the mound. He'll face Seattle LH Wade Miley, 6-3, 5.28 ERA. Last night, the Bucs let the Mariners jump out to a 5-0 lead. Score early, score often, score BIG; Hit, Run, & Score! 2)Yes, the offense only put 2 runs on the board last night but, as has become the custom, they had to fight their way out of an early hole. Ever since pitching guru Jim Benedict left for FLA, the pitching staff has been a shambles. Mrs. Black-N-Gold can't make this clear enough. You got to know when to hold 'em! 3)Thankfully, June is almost over. Hopefully the June swoon is almost over, too. Gimme a W! Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
