I think we all knew that this streak was too good to last for very long.  The Pirates just aren't good enough to dominate teams for long stretches of time.  This time, it was a lack of offense (again) and a rare bad outing by the bullpen that did the Bucs in.  Though as people are wont to note, Meatloaf said that 2 out of 3 ain't bad.

Cutch continued his hitting streak by getting one in this game.  Bobby Crosby got two hits.  Ross Ohlendorf had a good outing by only allowing 2 runs, 4 hits, 3 walks and 3 Ks.  Evan Meek's only run allowed was unearned, keeping his pristine ERA intact (.03 lower now, at 0.72).

However, it was Taschner's allowed run in the 8th that did the Bucs in.  They couldn't get anything going in the 9th, but really, that was the story all game apart from the 3-run 2nd inning.

GAME.
