Game 63: Yankees 13 Pirates 6

And so the weekend concludes with the Pirates 47 year losing streak in New York intact. They got crushed today, which is pretty much what everyone expected with BP Chacon starting against the Yankees. We tried to hang around for a bit, but when the starter only lasts 3 and 1/3 innings and you have our bullpen, well, things aren't destined to go well.

Let's see... how did the pen fare today? Well, Josh Sharpless entered the game with a 6-5 lead and two runners on, and immediately served up a homer to Alex Rodriguez. Masumi Kuwata came in next and started off decent, but then he walked Abreu and served up another home to A-Rod. This is where I stopped watching, but there was a Jonah Bayliss appearance where he served up three more runs and at that point I assume everyone wondered why he's still in the majors.
