Bottom 7

Well, my home-run derby never happened - at least not yet.

It's 1-1 in the bottom of the seventh, and the Pirates and Reds have teamed for nine hits. And neither team has left the yard - a rarity this spring at the wind tunnel that is McKechnie Field.

So the Pirates have 35 players in camp, and more than half are pitchers. Eighteen, to be exact. That means unless the Pirates plan on breaking camp with just seven position players, they have some decisions to make.

Then again, you can never have enough pitching. Maybe they're on to something...

1-1, bottom 7.
