THE BULLPEN

Take me out to the ballgame! Your Pittsburgh Pirates look to raise the jolly roger tonight at PNC Park as they begin a 3-game series against the Los Angeles Codgers. These are your keys to tonight's game. 1)The Codgers start RH Stephen Fife, 1-1 with a 3.78 ERA. In 8 career starts, the Codgers have only managed 14 combined runs for Fife. Let's see these guys play like Barney Fife tonight! 2)The Pirates are looking for revenge against LA. They were swept by the Codgers way back in April. It's time to right the ship and raise the colors! 3)With A.J. Burnett on the DL, the Pirates send out LH Jeff Locke tonight. Locke is 5-1 with a 2.39 ERA on the season but is 0-2 with a 7.00 ERA in his career versus LA. Locke and load, baby! After last night's 10-0 debacle to San Fran, we need to get back on the board with lots of Hit, Run, & Score! Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
