PITTSBURGH- It’s the final week of the regular season and the NL Central division is up for grabs. Baseball’s two best teams will meet in their final series of the regular season, a series in which the two teams have split their first 16 match-ups. The atmosphere should be electric at PNC Park.
The Pirates’ final pursuit to chase down St. Louis and win the NL Central division title hits full stride tonight, as they take on the first-place Cardinals in a crucial three-game set. The Pirates head into the showdown three games behind the Cardinals, making it likely that they will need to win all three games to have a realistic shot at winning the division.
