David Schoenfield:
The Pirates are just one behind the Cardinals for the second and final National League wild card and just three games behind the sinking Giants.
When Pittsburgh traded Mark Melancon and Francisco Liriano, everyone viewed it as the Pirates waving a white flag. Tony Watson is 7-for-8 in save chances since the trade, and he got the win in the save he blew. Felipe Rivero, acquired in the Melancon deal, has pitched scoreless baseball in eight of his nine appearances. McCutchen has four two-hit games in his past six, so maybe -- just maybe -- he'll get on a tear down the stretch.
One thing Pittsburgh needs to do is clean up when it plays the Brewers and Reds. The Pirates are 10-10 against them, but will play them in 18 of their final 44 games. Of course, they also have seven remaining against the Cubs, against whom they've gone just 3-9 this season. FanGraphs puts the Pirates' playoff odds at 34 percent. But that's a lot higher than two weeks ago, when they were 53-53.

Has Clint Hurdle given up the gum? I think it's three nights in a row I've turned on the Pirates game and he doesn't have a big mouthful.

@Buster_ESPNPrediction: Somebody is holding some kind of a meeting within the Pirates' organization sometime within the next 24 hours. Very ugly.

They were already pretty much dead but this game feels like the nail on the coffin.
