Closing out the year

The Pirates have their final home series against the Astros this weekend. Since they had to endure a hurricane and got a massive (insert crude sexual act here) from Bud Selig, I no longer feel nearly as hostile towards them as I did last time we played. This is probably also because they've dropped from the playoff race with five straight losses.

Anyways, the bane of my existence that's known as Ian Snell takes the mound tonight against Randy Wolf at 7:05. That's a maddening pitching match-up if I've ever seen one. I'd love for us to WIN ONE FREAKING GAME against the Astros in this series.
