The Giants

Last year we went 5-1 against the Giants and they lost their division by 2 games. Not sure that means anything this weekend, but it means we kept Barry Bonds out of the playoffs last year, and that makes me happy. More random Pirates/Giants facts in todays PG scouting report.

If the rain holds out, the Pirates go against Brett Tomko tonight for a shot at our first winning streak (aka 3 or more wins in a row) on the year. Mark Redman has a chance to endear himself to a large Pittsburgh crowd on fireworks night. Assuming the rain doesn't get to him first, of course.
