THE BULLPEN

     Here we are now, entertain us! Our Pittsburgh Pirates take their show on the road tonight when they begin a 2-game series in Seattle versus the Mariners. These are your keys for tonight's game. 1)The Pirates will look to get back in the win column tonight following yesterday's 5-4 loss to LA. After staking LH Francisco Liriano to an early 4-0 lead, the southpaw let it slip away for another loss. Mrs. Black-N-Gold has said it before and she'll say it again. With this pitching staff, there's always room for more Hit, Run & Score! 2)The Bucs send LH Jon Niese, 6-5, 4.93 ERA, to the bump. Seattle starts RH Hisashi Iwakuma, 6-6, 4.45 ERA. Niese is another starter that could be on the hot seat. He's 0-3 in his last 3 starts.  A win for Niese would be nice! 3)The Pirates aren't the only team that has swooned in June. The Mariners are 8-17 on the month. Gimme a W! Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
