    LLLW. Astros suck versus left-handers and something is wrong with Backe. Zeke and Wandy are not ready for the big leagues.

    Wow! Thank God we got out of St. Louis. This was a great game for us to rebound with.

    Take 3 out of 4 and we are in good shape going into Washington. The Nats are struggling so we might can get 3 out of 4 there too.

    I'm going Saturday night in DC. Hope they can use this Pittsburgh series to build up some momentum when they play the Nattys.

    1-0 on a two out double by Ensberg. Currently threatening with runners on 2nd and 3rd with two out in the 2nd.

    EDIT: Two run double by Willy T!!! 3-0 Stromiles!!!!

    Solid outing from Zeke, 6 innings and 2 runs. Hopefully Wandy does the same or better.

    I feel sorry for the pirate fans. Such a nice stadium. I have been there, but the fans deserve better.
