Blue Jays vs. Pirates, top of fifth

The weather forecast for Friday's historic night game at McKechnie is dicey. It's gotten a little darker here, and there is some moisture in the air.
This game is moving along thanks to relievers Duke and Janssen, but nine runs in two innings whets the appetite for offense. Still, if you're a Pirates fan, this outing by Duke is encouraging.
Maybe he overheard the press box wag's diss of his bona fides.
A 1-2-3 inning and three scoreless frames is certain to raise his confidence for next time. We're back on pace for a three-hour game, which is more good news.
