THE BULLPEN

Hey batter, batter, batter! Your Pittsburgh Pirates wrap up their series in the Windy City today versus the Chicago Scrubs. These are your keys to today's game. 1)The Pirates look to try out some Chicago Meatloaf as they go for 2 outta 3 against the Scrubs. Scoreboard Watch: St Louie won yesterday and is only 1 game back and Cincy won, making them 3 1/2 out. Need that wind to blow out when we're at bat today. I hope the Pirates packed some extra Hit, Run & Score! 2)Pirates RH A.J. Burnett returns from the disabled list to take the hill. A.J. is 4-6 with a 3.12 ERA but is looking for his 6th straight win at Wrigley. Friendly confines, indeed, A.J.! 3)Congrats to Petey, Clutch, Grilled Cheese and Locke for getting All-Star nods. Petey homered yesterday, but the Bucs fell to the Scrubs 4-1. Did you know when he homers, the Pirates are 16-5? Hit that ball a country mile, Petey! Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
