Rain Man’s Thursday Pick

Not much to work with today. There’s a bunch of match-ups that I’m on the fence on, but I’ve learned through the years that the best thing to do is to not bet on those games. With that said, I only have one pick today.

Wednesday MLB Sports Pick

The A’s really disappointed us on Monday with a poor performance from Cahill and no batting support. It’s always difficult betting against the Yankees. They’re a strong hitting team, but aren’t consistent enough to bet on them.

Pittsburgh Pirates

Pittsburgh Pirates

PNC Park- Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

The Pittsburgh Pirates baseball team is a member of Major League Baseball’s National League Central Division.  The Pirates play their home games at PNC Park, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

History                                         

In 1903, the Pittsburgh Pirates played and lost (to Boston) in what has been recognized as the first Modern World Series.  During this period, Honus Wagner played shortstop for the Pirates, known to be the best shortstop of his time, he helped lead the team to many successful seasons and its first World Series title in 1909.  The Pirates had a slump before reaching their second World Series and winning their first World Series title in 1925, defeating the Washington Senators.  The Pirates made it to their third World Series just two years later, but got sweeped by the New York Yankees in the 1927 World Series.
