THE BULLPEN

Root, root, root for the home team! Your Pittsburgh Pirates continue their series against the World Champion San Fran Giants tonight at PNC Park. These are your keys to tonight's game. 1)The Giants start LH Barry Zito, 4-4 with a 4.06 ERA. The road hasn't been good to Zito this season. He is 0-3 with a 10.19 ERA away from San Fran. Rough him up on the road! 2)The Giants haven't done very well on the road, lately, either. They have lost 9 of their last 12 road games. Make them road weary! 3)Pirates 3B Pedro Alvarez is heating up. In Petey's last 19 games, he has a .274 BA with 8 taters and 19 RBIs, including a homer and 3 RBIs in last night's 8-2 trouncing of the Giants. El Toro is on fire! It was good to see all of the Pirates bats come alive last night. Keep it going with the old Hit, Run, & Score mantra! Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
