THE BULLPEN

     Root, root, root for the home team! Our Pittsburgh Pirates wrap up their 4-game set with the Atlanta Braves tonight at the friendly confines of PNC Park. These are your keys for tonight's game. 1)A night after recording the most hits and runs on the season, the Pirates lost to the worst team in baseball, 3-1. The lone run was a solo homer off the bat of 3B Jung Ho Kang with 1 down in the bottom of the 9th. You have to do more Hit, Run & Score! 2)King Kang has cracked 5 home runs in less than 2 weeks back from the devastating knee injury that abruptly ended his rookie campaign. During his brief time back he's collected 9 hits it 32 at bats for a .281 average with 9 runs scored, 2 doubles 5 home runs and 10 RBI. Love the Kang Show! 3)The Bucs attempt to win the series tonight. Atlanta will start RH Mike Foltynewicz, 1-1, 2.89 ERA. The Pirates counter with LH Jeff Locke, 1-3, 5.45 ERA. Don't fall into the same trap again tonight. Score early, score often, score BIG and Locke down a win. Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
