Another lead as lost to the Pirates as the sweet extends the losing streak to 5. Somebody wake us up from this nightmare.
Well girls and boys, there goes the fifth straight. Although there was no rain delay, the day was very much the same. Early runs, hard pitching, tied game, blown lead, late-inning loss. With Justin Upton resting his All-Star obliques tonight, this series sweep from the Pirates comes in the form of three very-difficult to swallow losses, and ties a bow on a season that so far can best be described by this Bob Ross video.
