Can the streak continue?

The Pirates will look to continue to ruin everyone's hopes that Dave Littlefield and Jim Tracy will be fired by playing well, as now they've won four in a row against decent teams and people all over the place are saying that they're going to be spoilers in the season's last month. The pitching match-up tonight may lead to an old school Coors Field mash-off with Tony Armas and Elmer Dessens facing off tonight. Armas has the edge with a 6.58 ERA, but he didn't make it out of the third inning in his last start and the Dr. Jeckyll version of him doesn't show up nearly as often as Mr. Hyde.
