When the hilite of the evening is Underwood Jr. and Mears combining for 3 scoreless innings, you know it was a baseball game meant for a hockey conversation.

The Pirates are now 3-8 in the last 60 for a winning pct. of .272

They were 19-41 last season for a draft busting .317

If they win 10 games the rest of the way, they will equal last season's success. 11 games means they improved, 9 games or less means they regressed.

Polanco is making these meaningless games meaningful with every AB to see if he can end the season at or above the Mendoza line.

A better question is "will Alford end the season below .100?

D-backs lose, 8-7. They have tremendous focus.

I don't think the Rangers realize the dedication of the Orioles, Pirates, and Diamondbacks. The race to the bottom is just as intense as chasing a playoff spot. Colorado, Kansas City, Detroit, Anahiem, Miami messing up chasing mediocrity. Cubs, Twins and Nats waited too long and have a lot of work cut out for them
