The Pirates season ended on a bad note but that does not make up the season the fans in the city of Pittsburgh experienced. The city of Pittsburgh has been starving for a competitive baseball season since Game 7 of the NLCS in 1992. They have seen Owners, General Managers, and Players come in and go throughout the last 20 years. This 2013 team is something that they will remember forever.

Pittsburgh Pirates Season
The Pittsburgh Pirates season ended last night in the pivotal game 5 of the National League Divisional Series against the St. Louis Cardinals. Gerrit Cole actually pitched a pretty good game except for the one mistake he made to cardinals third basemen, David Freese. Cole pitched 5.0 innings, allowed 3 hits, 2 earned runs and 5 strikeouts. The only problem was the opposing guy on the mound was even better. Cardinals ace, Adam Wainwright pitched a complete game, allowed 8 hits, 1 earned run and 6 strikeouts. One of the highlights of the game for the Pirates was when 3rd Basemen became the first major league player to score in RBI in its first 6 postseason games of there career.

Cole looked good. When he misses bad it looks like he's trying to make too many pitches instead of just trusting his stuff. It's hard to beat a team when you face their ace twice. Stl is the better team, but it was hard to see that season come to an end.
