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.

Recap: Ten Things I Hate About Losing. BUCS SWEPT.
The Pirates' season has reached DEFCON 1. If they don't start winning some games in a hurry, they have no chance at all of finally ending the 18 year streak. It doesn't get any easier with the Giants next, but they finally have an off day after that series.
