Milledge's Grand Slam Beats Brewers

The Pirates continue their red hot play, winning their 12th straight, and we have Lastings Milledge to thank.

Milledge's Grand Slam in the 7th

With the score tied at 2 in the 7th inning, Brewers pitcher Chris Narveson intentionally walked Ryan Doumit to load the bases, bad mistake. Lastings Milledge was up on deck, and worked the count to 2-1, when he took the next fastball deep to left for his first Grand Slam as a Pittsburgh Pirate.

Neil Walker also had a breakout game going 3-4 and raising his average to .379.

The Pirates and Brewers complete the 3 game series tomorrow afternoon with Zach Duke throwing for the Bucs and Yovanni Gallardo for the Brew Crew

Brewers Sink Buc's Ship

Snap Pirates streak at 12

All good things must come to an end. The Brewers snapped the Pirates season high winning streak at 12 games, thanks in part to the Bucco bullpen faltering.

Duke pitched well enough for the win, but instead got a ND

Zach Duke pitched 6 scoreless innings, but ended up with a no decision as Jack Taschner gave up 2 late Brewer runs in earning his first loss of the season.

The agony of defeat

The Pirates now must regroup as they head to LA for a 4 game set against the Dodgers.

Pearce's 2 Homers Down Dodgers



Pearce hits the first of his 2 HRs

Steve Pearce continues to make his case for more playing time hitting 2 homeruns, including the Game winner as the Buccos get back on the winning track.

The Umpires needed video review to confirm Pearce's second HR

SP Ross Ohlendorf picked up his league leading 5th win of the season, even though he only lasted 5 innings.

Ohlendorf makes Manny look silly

The Pirates and Dodgers play game 2 of a 4 game set tomorrow evening with Paul Maholm (2-2 3.52) going for the Bucs, while LA counters with Hideki Kuroda (2-2 4.86)

Mistakes Cost Pirates in Loss


McCutchen may have gone 0-5, but he made a nice catch in the 6th

Walks and errors cost the Pirates a game in Los Angeles against the Dodgers.

Paul Maholm did not have a great night especially in the 3rd inning, walking 2 and giving up 3 runs.

The only bright spot was Garrett Jones' 2 Run HR in the 1st.

Jones' 1st Inning HR was all the offense the Bucs would get

The Dodgers and Pirates continue the series tomorrow night.

hey man, sorry if you posted this but I didn't see it anywhere in the forum. What difficulty are you playing on for hitting and pitching? Also are you using any slider changes?

Morton Rocked, Bucs Lose 2nd in a Row

The Pirates Played so bad tonight that they do not deserve any pictures to be published.

Charlie Morton did not have his greatest stuff tonight giving up 6 ER in just 5 Innings.

The offense did not show up until the 7th, but it was too little too late.

Vincente Padilla was spot on for the Dodgers, going 7 innings giving up only 1 run.

The Pirates will try to split the series tomorrow afternoon.
