The Pirates ended their modest two game losing streak last night with a 6-2 victory over the Colorado Rockies. Erik Bedard had his best outing in ages, and Andrew McCutchen homered yet again. It was McCutchen's 6th home run in the last six games, and his two hits in the game raised his average to a Major League leading .374.
I was glad to see the Pirates take care of business. Yes, the Rockies are pretty lousy, but after losing three of their first four games post-break, there was a bit of concern that began to set in among Pirates faithful. The sooner these Buccos can end streaks and stem tides, the better it is for the team's psyche as well as that of the fan base.
James McDonald takes the mound today as the Buccos look to take the series.
