The Pittsburgh Pirates are in 1st Place!!!!!!!

[Soriano12]

I so badly want Nats to catch them.. just dont know if there is enough games

Hopefully they don't: Need the Cards to hold on to win the Central and WSH would probably have to sweep STL @STL at the beginning of this week to have a chance of catching either STL/PIT/CIN

 

[Chi_Archie]

I think the Magic number for Pirates over Nats is 3 games

Bucs would pretty much need to lose all but one of their games and Nats would have to win all but of their games (and they got 3 games in St. Louis)

 

[thekeyman]

the NATS are not going to make it,lets get real here

Locke prob won't be on the post season roster now

freakin melanceon blows,another blown save,why even use him anymore


thank god marte homers with two out in the top of the ninth to maybe save us

 

[Chi_Archie]

3 outs way in St. Louis from the Pirates clinching a Post Season game.

I'd rather the Cards blow it and hold out with the Magic Number at 1

Pirates clinched a playoff spot, first time since 1992 :anichamp4

the buc's are in,the buc's are in,finally the jinx is over :aktion033k: :toast:

 

[Chi_Archie]

I wish they could have waited one more day to clinch

 

[SharkTank]

going to be a pretty intense series if pirates are tied with cincy for WC spot..going into final series at reds.

 

[ZJP6050]

need that home field...

 

[Chi_Archie]

Pirates missed a golden opportunity vs Chicago to go up 2 games on the Reds.

Time to go to work. They can do it.

 

[Maggiore]

Who ever wins this series will host the Wildcard game. Looks like Liriano vs Latos. Should be a fun 4 games over the next 6 days.

 

[thekeyman]

If the pirates don't get the home field for that wild card game then i'm going to worry. Im just not sure they can win in Cincinnati

 

[Chi_Archie]

raise it!

 

[SharkTank]

Need to win 1 outta 2 to get the first playoff game in PNC Park History.......

 

[ZJP6050]

what's the second tie breaker behind record? if we lose the next 2 we tie in terms of record...i'm assuming it goes head-to-head record from there?

 

[thekeyman]

well now we have the wild card game at pnc park,this is a great advantage for the pirates


​lets go buc's
