As someone once said, even a terrible pizza is still pizza. It’s good. Terrible major league baseball is still major league baseball. It’s fun to watch and appreciate if you love the game. Months from now, when it is cold outside and Neal Huntington isn’t making any significant moves (because we all know he isn’t getting fired), you may yearn to watch a game, even if the team you root for is eternally hopeless. Keep that in mind as the Pirates trudge towards the end of the season.
Bad baseball aside, there are still some fun things to watch for as the Pirates’ season draws to a close.
