Last one.

This is quite possibly Ohlendorf's last start for the Bucs.

I talk about the Pirates over at Brew Crew Ball.

If you happen to be going to the game, be sure to say hi to this guy.

Epic sports weekend activated: Pirates game tonight in Pittsburgh, LSU/WV game tomorrow in Morgantown, Saints/Texans in Nola on Sun. YEEHAW!

That's some dedication to sports, folks. If I weren't a Pirates fan, and I were going to the biggest game in Morgantown in about 90 years on Saturday and an NFL game halfway across the country on Sunday, I'm not sure I'd make a Pirates game a priority.

This will be Karstens' last start of the season. Whatever happens tonight, the guy deserves some serious props for a better year than I ever thought he'd have.

James McDonald allowed a three-run homer to James Loney in the first inning of the game last night, so it seemed like it was over when it had barely even started. The Pirates got one back on a double by Josh Harrison in the second, but Juan Rivera hit a two-run bomb in the third. McDonald lasted only three innings. The Pirates looked like they might have a chance to get back in the game in the eighth when they loaded the bases with one out, but Kenley Jansen struck out Ryan Ludwick and Garrett Jones to shut things down. The Pirates are now 68-84; it would be really nice to avoid losing 90.
