Top of the 6th

Josh Wilson (shortstop), Raul Chavez (catcher) and Franquelis Osoria (pitcher) all make their way into game, entrusted with pushing Pittsburgh's winning streak to two.

Up steps Ryan Howard. In three-plus seasons, he's whacked 129 home runs...been named Rookie of the Year and Most Valuable Player...brought a division championship to Philadelphia...nonetheless, someone screams, "Howard, you're a bum!" as he walks to the plate.

Howard grounds out weakly, however. Chris Snelling flies out, and the Pirates take a 4-2 into the bottom of the sixth.
