The Pirates are playing already?

Wow, early start today for the Buccos. They're in Chicago, and yet the game started at 1:00. I'm sure Cubs' fans are pleased about that. Zach Duke makes his return to the mound and guess what, he's gave up four hits and two runs in the first inning! But he did strike two batters out, which matched his total for May, I think (I'll have to look that up). Getting into an early 2-run deficit against a team in a playoff hunt is not a good way to break a losing streak.
