THE BULLPEN

     Hey batter, batter, batter, batter! Your Pittsburgh Pirates will try to salvage a split as they wrap up this rain-shortened series against the Chicago Scrubs tonight at PNC Park. These are your keys fo tonight's game. 1)The Bucs scratched out just 4 hits in last night's 5-0 loss. That's 7 hits in their last 2 games with 3 runs scored. That's not going to cut it. Please always remember and don't ever forget: Hit, Run, & Score! 2)The Scrubs start RH Dan Haren, 7-7, 3.42 ERA. There's good news. In Haren's last 4 starts against the Pirates, he is 0-3 with a 7.15 ERA. Score early, score often, score BIG! 3)The Pirates go with LH Jeff Locke, 6-6, 4.21 ERA. There's bad news. Locke has started 3 game against the Scurbs this season, going 0-1 with a 10.22 ERA. Locke down a win! Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
