We are in Pittsburgh and the visitor's clubhouse is PACKED.

Today the Pirates are pitching Jose Iniguez (6-6, 3.26).

The Giants have Pat Combs (7-5, 3.43).

I am hitting sixth.

I came up with one out in the 2nd and flew out to Bip Roberts in centre.

In the bottom of the 2nd I dropped a Kevin Bass pop up for my 18th error of the year.
Not okay.

I then came up in the 4th with two out and Ryan Klesko on 2nd. I struck out.

I caught a Dave Nilsson grounder for the 1st out in the bottom of the 6th.
I then dealt with a Bass grounder for the 3rd out.

I led off the 7th by grounding out to Dean Palmer at 3rd.

The Pirates broke the deadlock in the bottom of the inning when Deck Schofield tripled and scored on a Scott Bryant single.
Bryant ended up scoring on a Roberts single.

Matt brought in Joe Boever after that.
He walked a guy but then got the 3rd out.

Pirates lead 2-0

In the 8th, Lee Stevens scored on a Schofield sac fly.

Pirates lead 3-0

I came up with one out in the top of the 9th. Doug Jones was pitching. I grounded out to Chris Butterfield at short.

We were shut out.

I went 0 for 4 with an error.

We are not only in last, but we are 5.5 games behind the next team. That is for the entire NL.
