Re: Raise The Jolly Roger

Jones Leads Bucs to 6th Straight Win

Garrett Jones went 2 for 3 with a 2-Run HR to lead the Pirates to their 6th straight victory on Wednesday night at PNC Park. "It felt great to bust out of the mini-slump I was in, and to help the team keep winning. We are not used to this feeling, and we are hungry for more" said Jones after the game.

Jones admires his 2-run HR



Jones not only helped with his offense, but he also threw a runner out at 3rd base early in the game.

Andrew McCutchen stole 3 bases on Brewers' cather Greg Zaun and also extended his hitting streak to 13 gms.

Lastings Milledge extended his own hitting streak to 10 games.

The Brewers and Pirates end the 3 game series on Thursday afternoon at 1pm, with the Pirates looking for their second sweep of the season.

Re: Raise The Jolly Roger

Pirates Sweep Brewers; Win 7th in a Row

The Pirates swept the Brewers in dramatic fashion this afternoon, winning 4-3.

Doumit hits a 1st inning 2-run HR

Andrew McCutchen's Game Winning RBI double in the bottom of the 8th inning propelled the Bucs to the win.

The Pirates jumped out early on Ryan Doumit's 2-run HR in the first and added to it with Lastings Milledge's solo HR in the 4th (his first of the season). The Brewers would not go down easy and came back to tie it at 3-3 in the 6th on Rickie Weeks' solo HR. Delwyn Young had a pinch hit double, followed by McCutchen's heroics.

Milledge rounds 2nd base after hitting his 1st HR of the season

The Buccos embark on a 10 game road trip starting with 3 games in Houston.

Re: Raise The Jolly Roger

Pirates Down Astros; Win 8th Straight

The Pirates continued their winning ways in Houston with a 5-2 victory over the Astros. The Pirates jumped on the 'Stros in the top of the 1st inning with a solo HR from Garrett Jones.

Although his 14 gm hitting streak was snapped, Cutch shows some leather

Zach Duke pitched 6 strong innings in picking up his 2nd win of the season. Lastings Milledge extended his hitting streak to 12 games, but Andrew McCutchen's 14 game streak came to an end. Justin Smoak hit his 2nd HR of the season, and Neil Walker had his 1st hit and RBI.

Smoak admires his 9th inning solo HR

The Pirates and Astros meet again in Game 2 tomorrow night in Houston.

Re: Raise The Jolly Roger

Crosby's Pinch Hit HR Lifts Bucs to 9th Win in a Row

Ross Ohlendorf picked up his 4th straight win of the season in beathing the Astors 4-3 on Saturday night. It wasn't a typical Ohlendorf start as he walked 4 batters and had to throw over 100 pitches in just 6 innings, but he got the job done.

Pearce absolutley CRUSHES this HR

Steve Pearce hit a monster HR to left field to tie the game at 3-3 in the 4th. It would stay that way until the 7th when pinch hitter Bobby Crosby was called to the plate. The first pitch that Crosby saw was a hanging curve that he blasted over the centerfield wall. "It felt awesome," Crosby said after the game. "To get the call and hit the 1st pitch you see for a game-winningpinch hit HR, I couldn't have scripted it any better."

Crosby is mobbed in the dugout after hitting his PH HR

The Pirates go for the sweep of the Astros (and their 10th victory in a row) tomorrow afternoon at 1:05pm.

The Bucco Train kept rolling on Sunday afternoon with a convincing 5-1 victory, the Pirates 10th in a row.

The Pirates jumped on the 'Stros early when Lastings Milledge and Neil Walker hit back-to-back Solo Homeruns to start the game off. The first 5 Pirate batter reached base in the 1st, and they never looked back.

Milledge and Walker hit back-to-back solo HRs to start the game

Walker had a breakout game going 3-5 with a HR and 2 RBIs.

The Pirates hope to continue their winning ways when they start a 3 game series against the Brewers in Milawaukee tomorrow night

Re: Raise The Jolly Roger

Jones, Bullpen Power Bucs to 11th Straight Win

Garrett Jones hit 2 solo homers and the Bucco bullpen threw 5 scoreless innings powering the Pirates to their 11th straight win.

Jones crushes this Hoffman pitch for the GW HR in the 10th

Starting pitcher Charlie Morton did not have a great outing, lasting only 5 innings and getting a no decision, before turning it over to the Pen.

Chris Jakubauskas and the bullpen shut the Brewers out

Lastings Milledge's single in the 8th plated Neil Walker to tie the game at 3, then Garrett Jones hit his second HR of the game to take the lead for good in the 10th.

The Pirates and Brewers continue their series tomorrow night with Kevin Hart (1-0, 2.25 ERA) starting for the Bucs, while the Brewers counter with Manny Parra (1-1, 4.50 ERA).

Bucco Bits After the game, Ryan Church was activated from the DL. To make room for him, the Pirates sent Ronny Cedeno to AAA, Cedeno will have to clear waiver first.
