THE BULLPEN

    Happy Bucs & Pucks Day! Buy me some peanuts and cracker jacks! Our Pittsburgh Pirates close out their series with the Sox this afternoon in Boston. these are your keys for today's game. 1)The Bucs try to salvage a win in today's finale following last night's 12-inning, heart-breaking 3-0 loss. In the early going, the Buccos bats are having a hard time getting going. See the ball. Hit the ball. And Hit, Run, & Score! 2)Pirates RH Chad Kuhl faces Red Sox southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez. Be cool and win the ballgame! 3)Last night was a pitcher's duel. RH Jameson Taillon deserved a win but credit the bullpen for keeping one of the most potent offenses in MLB in check, too. That is...until the 12th inning, when LH Antonio Bastardo gave up the game-winning, walkoff 3 run homer. You got to know when to hold 'em! Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
