Why wait until later, let’s get right to it. Bucs squander a two on, nobody out situation in the first and come away with no runs.
After Cutch, there is no one in the lineup above .235. So the odds of so many below average hitters stringing hits together in the same inning to score a run are slim. I think this is why we see this problem game in and game out.

Oviedo with a good first inning, allowing only a one out walk. No score after one.

Yeah, it’s not hard to figure out why the team doesn’t score.

Oh no, bad news. The Bucs put the first two hitters on base in the second.

Yikes! Now the bases are loaded with no one out. Oh the humanity!

After two straight walks, Rivas swings at the first pitch and grounds into a double play. Endy scores. 1-0 Bucs.

Williams flies out for the third out. Once again, an opportunity lost.

That's what it takes to get one run.

Oviedo with a clean second inning. He might need seven more with this Pirates line-up.
