No raising tonight.
-
Gorzelanny was not effective, but kept Pittsburgh in the game by allowing 3 runs in 6 innings.
-
It didn't start off well, with a triple by Martin Prado to open the game.
-
The Bucs got 2 (both scoring on a single by who else? Xavier Nady) in the 6th and had a golden opportunity to tie the game with runners on first and third with one out. Bautista bounced into a double play to end the threat.
-
Jair Jurrjens was just short of dominant until the 6th. Only one extra base hit for the Pirates (McLouth double).
--
After that 6th, the teams traded scoreless innings (including a near miss for the Bucs in the 7th, with 2 men on, Doumit battled through a long AB before flying out) until Damaso Marte came in to keep the game within one run going into the 9th inning......
---
Let's just say that didn't work out so well.
--
Marte's ERA after 2 appearances this year (he has recorded 2 total outs): 81.00
--
Not too good for a dominant lefty specialist.
---------
Evan Meek made his major league debut after that mess, and......he didn't fare much better.
--
A one run game going into the 8th was an 8 run game after the 8th.
--
No late heroics today.

FINAL: 10-2

Hey, we're .500
