I’ll be the first to admit, I may end up being way wrong about this current Pittsburgh Pirates road trip. When the road trip started the team was coming off a demoralizing 9-6 loss against the Texas Rangers, the pitching staff was a mess, and the schedule on the trip looked brutal.
The road trip started with a brutal 17-4 loss against the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday night. After this, the Bucs looked destined for a brutal road trip. To the team’s credit, they bounced back the final three days of the series to take 3 of 4 from the Red Birds.
