Pirates take down Gints 9-2 this afternoon.
TIED!
WHOA!! Didn't realize that was a day game today!!!! Way to go Pitt!!!!!!

Please, please Justin Upton stay hot!! I believe the kid the D-backs are facing tonight has never thrown a pitch in the majors!! And, I could be wrong but I don't believe the Astros have ever faced Collmenter before...
We gotta get this done tonight!!!!
We've got a brutal 10 game road trip coming up with 3 in Philly, 3 in Atlanta and 4 in Washington. While the Giants also have a 10 game road trip over the same period, but a bit easier schedule with 3 in Florida, 4 in Atlanta and 3 in Houston.
Once we start this road trip, we will play 29 games over the next 30 days! Brutal... Gonna be one helluva of a test for our guys!!!
Also, we head back up to San Francisco for what could be a HUGE 3 game series on September 2nd, 3rd and 4th! We've got to ensure that series means something!!!
We then host the Giants @ Chase for a 3 gamer on September 23rd, 24th and 25th... would be awesome if that series meant nothing!!!!! Because we would have wrapped up first place by then!!!!!!!
