THE BULLPEN

     Play ball, not work ball! Our Pittsburgh Pirates continue their series with the Washington Nationals tonight at PNC Park. These are your keys for tonight's game. 1)The Pirates walked off with a win in dramatic fashion last night, 6-5 in 11 innings. We need more Hit, Run & Score! 2)Word before last night's game was the Nats had champagne and Bud Light on ice to celebrate clinching a trip to the postseason. A win tonight would be nice. Put the Nats on ice! 3)The Pirates will face Nationals RH Joe Ross, 7-5, 3.48 ERA. The Bucs counter with RH Ivan Nova, 5-1, 2.93 ERA. In Nova's last outing, versus Cincy, Nova suffered his first loss in Black-N-Gold. Be a Super Nova! Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
