Last Week (3-3): 2-1 vs. NYM, 1-2 vs. MIL
- 9/8: NYM 5, PIT 6 - Castro was able to get through 6 for the quality start but the bullpen slipped up as Marinez and Perez both blew saves. Marte hit well (2-4 2 RS 1 RBI) and McCutchen (4-5 2 RS 1 RBI) hit a solo shot in the bottom of the 10th to give us the win.
- 9/9: NYM 5, PIT 3 - Wandy was roughed up (5.1 IP 3 ER 9 H 4 BB) and Tillman had a good start (7 IP 3 ER) as we just couldn't muster anything against the Mets Bullpen.
- 9/10: NYM 2, PIT 5 - Liriano earned his 19th win of the year going 6.1 IP allowing 2 ER. Lowrie led the offense going 2-3 with 2 HR and 3 RBI Wallace also added a HR as Marinez nailed down his 15th save in the 9th.
- 9/12: MIL 4, PIT 2 - Burnett didn't fair well in 4 IP giving up 4 ER. The bullpen held it down the rest of the way but it wouldn't matter as Gollardo held us to 1 ER despite allowing 12 hits and Jake Mcgee earned his 13th save.
- 9/13: MIL 2, PIT 6 - Castro earned his 12th win of the year going 6 IP allowing 2 ER striking out 8. Marte (2-4) had an RBI 3B and Martin (3-5 2 RS) chipped in with an RBI single.
- 9/14: MIL 6, PIT 1 - Lincecum gave up 4 ER through 5 IP taking the loss as Lohse dominated going 8 IP allowing only 1 ER.
