Pirates tidbits (2012 season)

Pirates 5
Marlins 1

AJ Burnett is now 11-3 so thank you to the Yankees for paying most of his salary. By the way, the Pirates have the best home record in MLB at 31-14. :pirate1:

Bucs break out the brooms while hitting their 104th home run of the season. They hit 107 all of last year. :pirate2:

Pirates finally get back to winning, but came damn close to getting swept by the hapless Cubbies in the 'Burgh.

The Bucs had the best record in baseball the last 50 games through Sunday (34-16) so even with that hiccup they're 35-18 the last 53. I'll take it.

Need to do better in Houston next series, though.

So, Starling Marte is a heck of a player.

Just a really good ballplayer. I hear he'll be up in late June after his Super-2 eligibility (or something) is up. Him and 'Cutch in the outfield=no hits. And the kid is good with the stick too.

Starling Marte hits the first pitch he sees in the big leagues into the left field seats. :lol:

Fun player to watch. Enjoy Pittsburgh!

Thought Pirates did fairly well on Trade Deadline day. Would have liked to seen a more proven bat, but the 2 guys they picked up have potential. Don't like the reliever they got from NYY, but I guess they felt sorry for Stealing Burrnett from the Yankees.

BIG series coming up vs Reds!

4 outs away and some kid who just got called up from the minors today gets a solid single after 2 borderline pitches were called balls. Oh well, just finish off the win, Bucs.

The Pirates have NEVER won a series versus the Padres in PNC Park. :bonk:

Holy shit, the Pirates finally won a home game versus San Diego ending the Pads 11 game winning streak at PNC Park. Had to rally from 5-0 down to do it. :pirate2:
