So This Is Happening

So this is actually happening guys.  The Pirates are 1 win away from winning game number 81 and guaranteeing they finish the season with at least a .500 record.  If you are reading this post you are, like the 3 of us, too young to remember where you were the last time the Pirates had a winning season in 1992.  You have probably been told though about the horror story that started this all of Barry Bonds not being able to throw out Sid Bream at home in the playoffs that year.  Then in 1993 the losing streak started.  There were glimmers of hope the past 2 season when the Pirates were relevant in August.  But 2 collapses later brings us to September 3rd, 2013.  The Pirates have 80 wins.  We are not making this up.  the Pirates have 80 wins and 1 more win can erase 20 straight years or sub .500 finishes and losing.  Not only can the Pirates do that, they can do it in a house of horror's for them, Milwaukee.  First pitch in Milwaukee at 8:10.  

Go Bucs

P.S.  Another post in like 10 seconds
