THE BULLPEN

     There's no crying in baseball! Our Pittsburgh Pirates continue their interleague series tonight at PNC Park with the Houston Astros. These are your keys for tonight's game. 1)The Pirates lowered the Jolly Roger for the 4th consecutive game following last night's 3-1 loss. In those losses, they've scored 9 runs total and 5 of those came in Friday's loss. It's a shame to have no game. You gotta have more Hit, Run, & Score! 2)As the Bucs' ship continues to sink, their season is on the brink. Stop SUCKN and start BUCN! 3)Rookie RH Joe Musgrove, 1-1, 4.18 ERA will start for the 'Stros. The Bucs will have RH Ivan Nova, 9-6, 4.83 ERA, on the bump. Mrs. Black-N-Gold is tired of hearing how Nova is a ground ball pitcher. Lately he's looked like the 2nd coming of Jon Niese, all talk of ground ball but plenty of gopher ball action. Keep the ball in the park and a W in the win column! Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
