Nothing good ever happens to the Pittsburgh Pirates when they travel to the city of Atlanta. Nothing. There was the Jerry Meals game in 2011. No one needs to talk about that awful, awful October night in 1992. And now, there is whatever the hell unfolded on Monday night.
Major League Baseball has a major problem with their umpires. This was on full display in the Pirates loss against the Atlanta Braves on Monday night. Following the 13-7 loss, the Pirate slide continues as they are now 6-15 in their last 21 games and 30-35 overall.
