Get in the Car - We are going home!

Headline: Pirates head home after a 7-5  victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers. LaRoche Homer's. Duffy goes 3 for 5 scoring 3 times.

After a seven game roadtrip which included a sweep of the World Champion St. Louis Cardnials, the Bucs return to Pittsburgh with no signs of showing the Bucco faithful what this team is made of. If the Pirates had lots of questions heading into the 07 campaign, they have a whole bucket full now, including what the **** is really in a Bucco taco?

Adam LaRoche has three home runs on the young season, but he also only has SIX, yes six hits. Three of those hits are his home runs. Pirate fans were promised a left handed power hitting first baseman, not a left handed double play inducing, ball four swinging, red-headed...guy. (I didnt want to go too far and insult, what could be, a great Pirate player). Ronny Paulino is batting a robust .180 with only 4 r.b.i's. This is a guy that came out of nowhere to hit over .300 in his rookie year. Ronny better get Jo-Bu to bless his bats, because Ryan Doumit is knocking the cover off the ball (YAAAY MY FIRST CLICHE) in Triple A Indianapolis. Questions, questions, questions, I know its early and I know the NL Central is worse than seeing Roseanne Bar naked, BUT I would like to see just a small glimpse of what this team is truly capable of. Cmon Bucs!

Next Game: VS. ASTROS Tuesday Evening 7:05 @ PNC Park

Paul Maholm VS Woody Williams.
