Dejan Kovacevic recaps last night's game.
Any time a team scores only two runs, they are probably going to lose. That's not much of a lead to protect, so I would not compare this loss to the Saturday against Arizona.
One play that I'd emphasize when studying the loss: Jose Bautista's no-out bunt to move the runner from scoring position to scoring position. Why play for one run? It was not the bottom of the ninth in a tie game. With the way Bautista has been hitting, I expected the Pirates to let him swing away and play for a multi-run rally.
