They win AGAIN!

Almost saw a triple play today...but what we did see was ANOTHER Pirate win, as the Buccos beat the Reds 2-1 at refrigerated McKechnie Field to improve to 5-1.
Andrew McCutchen had a fine day - he made a nice play on a windblown fly ball hit to left, gunned down the Reds' Paul Janish trying to tag up from third in the seventh, got his first hit of the spring and scored the winning run on Andy Phillips' single in the eighth.

The Pirates return to McKechnie tomorrow to face the Netherlands. Not the all country, but the World Baseball Classic recipient.

Hopefully, they'll bring better weather from Pirate City, where they spent the spring working out.

So long for today. John Lembo, signing out.
