Pirates on fire!
Pirates take sole possession of first place for the first time (this late in July) since the tragic year of Francisco Cabrera. Heck of a last three games by the Bucs; against the team with baseball's best record, no less, and a guarantee they'll come out ahead in this rare old-school 5-game series. At twenty-two games over .500, this just does not look like a team that's going to swoon as did some of their predecessors. They're fun to watch, too; such a plucky bunch.
Cardinals have lost 6 in a row.
