Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Milwaukee Brewers – Game 48
I called for an 8-2 homestand and the Pirates delivered. I will take credit for it. They must all read my work. Good job boys. Good defense, good pitching, few timely hits and the Pirates are magically 11 games over .500. They are also now just ten wins away from becoming the seventh team to…

Round Two, Game Four: Penguins-Senators Recap
Already off to a good start on this recap. Remembered to put “round two” in headline. In my recap for game three, I decided that it was still round one since I’m a jackass. My new found ability to type correctly isn’t the only good thing about this game. The way game three ended triggered…

We’re entering the midway point of the second round and there still hadn’t been a multiple overtime game. That was…

Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Houston Astros – Game 44
To say I’m disappointed would be an understatement. There is a very real argument that the Pirates should be on the verge of being swept by the Astros. It reminds me too much of last year when the Pirates were amazing against the challenging part of their schedule but fell apart once it let up.…

Desperate Times in Ottawa
Five games. That’s all that Jason Spezza played this year before having back surgery on January 27 that forced him to miss the rest of the regular season. The Ottawa Senators find themselves down two games to none in their best of seven series against the Pittsburgh Penguins. Convenient time for Spezza to be healthy…
