The Pirates were on a tear coming into this series...but it's not like we did ourselves any favors defensively today.
3 hits isn't going to win many games, either.
Basically, they play the game unselfishly, they have very solid defense and, like the Twins from 2002-2009, they let their opponents beat themselves. (The difference is these days, we can't honestly say we have more talent on our roster compared to other teams.)
Pirates scored 8 runs in 4 wins coming in not exactly a tear.
