On to St. Louis
The Pirates role in to St. Louis for the typical 8 PM Central Time Zone start. Ian Snell and Braden Looper get the starts in a rematch of last year's home opener at PNC. Snell's last start was pretty bad and I've pretty much resigned myself to the fact that he needs the winter to find whatever it was that worked for him last year and isn't working this year. Nyjer Morgan is up with the Pirates and starting in center and batting leadoff. Hooray awful memories!
