Pittsburgh Pirates Fail to Retaliate, Lose to the Chicago Cubs Again

After a 26-17 start to the season the Pittsburgh Pirates were flying sky high. Unfortunately, nothing has gone right since then.

On Tuesday night the Pirates lost to the Chicago Cubs by a score of 8-6. With the loss, the Pirates are now just 2-9 in their last 11 games and 28-26 overall. Once again, the Cubs came into PNC Park, pushed and bullied the Pirates around, and the team did nothing about it.

In the top of the 1st inning Anthony Rizzo stepped to the plate with two outs and a man on base.
