PITTSBURGH -- Two teams currently heading in opposite directions will meet again Saturday, for the second of three games in Pittsburgh this weekend.The Chicago Cubs are coming off their fourth straight loss after allowing five combined runs to the Pittsburgh Pirates in the seventh and eighth innings of an 8-4 loss Friday. Meanwhile, the Pirates have won eight of their past nine games to pull within 7.5 games of the National League Central-leading Cubs.Cubs manager Joe Maddon didnt hide his frustration Friday night.Were just not able to play through our mistakes like we did at the beginning of the year, Maddon said. No excuses. Weve got to play better.Pirates right-handed pitcher Chad Kuhl will make his third MLB start after going 1-0 in his first two. He pitched five innings and allowed three earned runs and four hits in a 4-3 win against the Los Angeles Dodgers on June 6 before going six innings with two runs and seven hits against the Oakland Athletics on July 2.The Pirates won each time the 23-year-old has started, which helped bolster a starting rotation that was laboring through a dismal June.Pittsburgh relied on several young pitchers to fuel its recent turnaround, including Kuhl and right-hander Jameson Taillon. It promoted right-hander Tyler Glasnow, the Pirates top-ranked prospect by Baseball America, on Thursday before optioning him back to Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday.The youth movement hasnt just belonged to the pitching staff, though. First baseman Josh Bell was promoted from Indianapolis on Friday, when he pinch-hit against Jake Arrieta in the seventh inning and laced a single to center field in his first major league at-bat to help set up the tying run.Hurdle said the Pirates will use Bell as a bat off the bench during the weekend series before re-evaluating the lineup after the All-Star Break. He was impressed with Bells temperament, however, and would be confident using him in a similar position Saturday.My goodness. Big league first at-bat, that scenario? I dont know how much better it gets than that, Hurdle said. Mom and dad are in the park. Laces a ball on the first pitch off a Cy Young winner. Thats awful nice. I dont know if he had that yesterday when he woke up or this morning on the way here not he plane. Good for him and good for us.It will have to be seen if the Pirates youth can help them overcome veteran left-hander Jon Lester on Saturday.Lester has rolled to a 9-4 record with a 2.67 ERA, but is coming off his worst start of the season. He went just 1 1/3 innings and allowed eight earned runs on nine hits in Chicagos 14-3 loss to the New York Mets on July 3.In his previous three starts against Pittsburgh this season, Lester has allowed four combined runs across 18 1/3 innings pitched in three wins. He had his least impressive performance against the Pirates when he last faced them, allowing three runs in six innings, but winning 4-3 on June 18.

For the seventh time in hiis brilliant career AC threw for over 5,000 yards.dddddddddddd No one has ever done that before! He has thrown 449 touchdowns, second in pro football only to Brett Favres 508. Thats a crazy number. He played las year with a non-throwing shoulder that needed surgery for most of the season and was one dropped touchdown pass from advancing to the Grey Cup for the ninth time. Anyhow, I bet Dan Hawkins is happy hes starting his CFL career with AC as his QB. I can guarantee that! New coach, new system, new contract, same old Anthony! Love it... The Als signing of Quinton Porter was a smart move as Adrian McPherson is/was no longer in the picture. I really like what I know and have seen from third year QB Josh Neiswander. Hes been doing things right, soaking in all he can from AC and Marc Trestman the last two years, and when the chance comes I expect him to shine and perform at a high level. Tanner Marsh is a big kid from Arkansas Tech whos fighting for a roster spot. ' ' '
