The Pirates pitching continues to shine, but it's too little, too late for the bats as they fall, 4-3, to the Marlins.

Pirates end losing streak against the Marlins, winning in the 9th with 3 runs, 3-1. Ortiz throws a great game and Bednar notches his 15th save. Nick Gonzales makes his MLB debut.

Pirates bullpen wastes a quality start by Keller, gives up a late home run in a loss, 6-4, to Miami. Henry Davis hits his first Major League Homer in loss.

My response to the Super Genius Mark Madden article on triblive.com.

The Pirates lose to the Cubs, 8-3, swept at home. They've lost 3 straight series, all sweeps, for 9 straight defeats.
