Rock Bottom...? BUCS SWEPT.

This series was an embarrassment to the memory of the Pirates' great history. The Astros had as many hits in the first and second games that the Pirates had in all games in the series combined. Ronny Cedeno inexplicably failed to run out a grounder and turned what would have been a fielder's choice into a double play for the Astros. The Pirates failed to record a run or even reach second base against possibly the worst starter in all of baseball. This post is titled Rock Bottom, but the scary thing is that I wonder if the Pirates are there yet. A one-game make up home game against the Dodgers is on tap for today.
