The Pirates scored 4 runs in the 4th inning without even getting a hit. Think about that. No hits, 4 runs. You never know what to expect with Carlos Zambrano, but you certainly wouldn't expect to score four times without getting a hit. Errors, hit by pitches, and walks.
| Yep, just 29 |
| 29 wins needed to end the streak |
On a night when Zambelli, not the Pirates offense, supplied the fireworks (although Jordy Mercer was seen flashing the Zoltan after knocking a trip- trip- triple off the wall), AJ Burnett was stellar. The Pirates continue to win games at home. They get a really sharp starting pitching performance for the first time in a long time. Once again they win a series against a team with a losing record, and they're set up for a chance to sweep. They're now 29 wins away from putting an end to the losing streak and 13 games above five hundred. They continue to do what they've been doing, and the second half schedule continues to shape up nicely. I sold my tickets to tonight's game, so I hope Mike and his son had a great time. It was a sell out crowd.
