The Pirates Are Hot
Posted on 24 Jul 2012 by Emily Gruver.
With the MLB season already past the all-star break and into the second half of the season, one of the teams that you would have to say surprised you the most is the 52-40, Pittsburgh Pirates. The Pirates were a team that was low under the .500 mark lasy year and now their win percentage is at .565. Young star, Andrew McCutchen is leading the way for this ball club. This all-star is currently b...

Posted on 28 Jun 2012 by Emily Gruver.
After two straight losses to the Philadelphia Phillies, the Pirates finally pulled away with a W. The Pirates won this one 11-7 last night in a true hitting battle. Both teams combined for 24 hits. Chase Utley made his return in this game, going 3 for 5 with a homerun in his first at-bat. Andrew McCutchen had another great game, going 2 for 5. McKenry played great as well, going 2 for 4.

Pirates Lose, McCutchen Bright Future
Posted on 27 Jun 2012 by Emily Gruver.
The Pittsburgh Pirates lost another tough one last night to the Philadelphia Phillies, 5-4. Although Andrew McCutchen had an excellent performance, Chooch and the Phillies were just too much to handle last night. There is no doubt in my mind that McCutchen has a very bright future ahead of him. He went 2 for 4 last night in the loss and helped his team out as much as he could. Andrew is only...

Posted on 22 May 2012 by Aryn Ouellette.
Tuesday night's game between the New York Mets and Pittsburgh Pirates wasn't kind to third basemen, David Wright. Wright, who has been on fire since the season has begun, went 0-4, with three strike outs in the Mets win. Scoring started in the second inning when Mets catcher, Mike Nickeas singled, scoring Daniel Murphy. Pirates center fielder Andrew McCutchen, who went 2-4, tied the game up...

Pittsburgh Pirates Ride Walk-Off Wins to Series Victories Over Nationals and Astros
Posted on 14 May 2012 by Drew Karpen.
Fans began to slowly trickle out of the stadium on the rainy and gloomy Mother’s Day game between the Houston Astros and Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park yesterday, with little to cheer about. The Pirates offense looked like they were going to waste another spectacular start by starter A.J. Burnett, trailing 2-1 in the bottom of the ninth. Neil Walker’s second double of the game put the pot...

Pittsburgh Pirates Struggle Against Divisional Opponents
Posted on 7 May 2012 by Drew Karpen.
Up until this week, the Pittsburgh Pirates were the only team in the majors to not score more than five runs in a game. That streak ended on Monday, April 30, in Pittsburgh’s series finale against the Atlanta Braves. The offense exploded for nine runs on their way to splitting the four game series, with a 9-3 victory. Pittsburgh, hoping their outburst would carry over to St. Louis, was ge...

Posted on 30 Apr 2012 by Drew Karpen.
Not much has changed from last week to this week in the Pirates season. After going 3-3 over their last 6 games, Pittsburgh remains in fourth place in the National League Central, only a half a game behind the Milwaukee Brewers for third. The week got off to a rainy start, when their opening game in a three game series against the Colorado Rockies was postponed and scheduled as part of a doub...

Pittsburgh Pirates Split Series Against Diamondbacks and Cardinals
Posted on 23 Apr 2012 by Drew Karpen.
Not much has changed for Opening Week until this point for the Pittsburgh Pirates, as they find themselves three games under .500 at 6-9 and at the bottom half of the NL Central in fourth place. The two constants for the Pirates throughout the first two weekends of the year has been their stellar pitching performance and their lack of offense. Pittsburgh has the fourth best team ERA in the ma...

Posted on 16 Apr 2012 by Drew Karpen.

Pittsburgh got off to a tremendous start with a season opening series win over the reigning National League East champion Philadelphia Phillies. After a tough luck 1-0 loss on Opening Day f...

Pittsburgh Pirates: 2012 Season Preview
Posted on 26 Mar 2012 by Drew Karpen.
Last year, the city of Pittsburgh got a glimpse of what meaningful baseball feels like in the second half of the season, for the first time in nearly two decades. The Pirates finished the first half of the season, with their eyes set on the NL Central title. All the players were never in this position before, and the youth was a main contributor to the downfall. With the 2012 season less than t...

Pirates Struggle to Find Offense in Loss To Phillies
Posted on 13 Mar 2012 by Drew Karpen.
Just last week the Pittsburgh Pirates offense looked like they were in mid-season form. That was not the case in yesterday’s 4-1 defeat to the Philadelphia Phillies. The Pirates were able to squeak out two hits in nine innings, including going 12 up and 12 down against Phillies starter, Vance Worley. The lone bright spot during the game for the Pirates was starter, Charlie Morton, making his ...

Pirates Fall to Phillies on Walk-Off Home Run
Posted on 8 Mar 2012 by Drew Karpen.
Pittsburgh Pirates reliever Michael Dubee was going to be a long shot to make the roster, but the outcome today did not help his slim hopes. Dubee came on to pitch the tenth inning, which was most likely going to be the last inning no matter what. Luis Montanez was the first batter scheduled to face Dubee, and was also the last. Montanez hit a walk-off home run off of Dubee to propel the Philli...
