Tough times have fallen upon the Pittsburgh Pirates and their fans. After last night’s loss to the Milwaukee Brewers, the Bucs have lost four straight games, and are just 7-14 in their last 21 contests. They have fallen eight games behind the Cincinnati Reds in the N.L. Central and are two games behind the St. Louis Cardinals for the final Wild Card spot.
Here at Fans From The Stands, Zane and Chad discuss the Pirates struggles this month, where they stand right now and where they’re headed over the course of the rest of the season. They look into the continued slump on Andrew McCutchen, the red hot play of Garrett Jones this month, as well as the inconsistencies at the plate, in the field, and on the mound.
There’s a special improv version of Ask Zane Anything, a look at the N.L. Central and Wild Card standings, as well as a look ahead of the stretch of games for the Pirates against their divisional foes over the next few weeks.
Enjoy the podcast, Bucco fans, and until next week…
