Wednesday night was one of the worst games of the season for the Pittsburgh Pirates. Playing a New York Mets team that the Pirates had dominated in recent years, the Bucs were dealt a 11-2 loss. This was a game that the Pittsburgh Pirates found themselves trailing 3-0 after one inning, and things just snowballed from there.
With the loss, the Pittsburgh Pirates June swoon continued. The Pirates are now just 4-10 in the month of June after their loss on Wednesday night. Making matters even worse for the Pittsburgh Pirates is that left fielder Starling Marte had to leave the game early with an apparent eye injury.
