More frustration, as the Astros piled 4 Home Runs on the Bucs, which accounted for 5 of their 6 runs.  The Pirates left a shitload of guys on base, including a bases loaded situation where Ryan Church promptly struck out to end the threat.  Coupled with the fact that Bourn made some unreal catches which probably could have score a lot more if they had dropped, and the fact that the Pirates were unable to hit any long balls despite the obvious shortness of the walls from the plate in the hitter's park made for a really crappy game to watch, most of all because the Pirates kept it close for most of the game only to fall short at the end.  Pedro's hitting streak ended.  Garrett Jones and Ryan Doumit both had 3-hit games, but it didn't make any difference.  It's starting to look like the Pirates will never beat this team, but I know as soon as I say that they'll win a few and I'll start to think that they actually resemble a major league baseball team, only to be dragged back down to earth with some more stupendously awful play.  And so it goes.
