Pittsburgh Pirates Tickets – are the Pirates the Best Hitters in the Nl Central?

Fans who buy Pittsburgh Pirates tickets probably think that they are rooting for the best hitting team in the NL Central. However, there are a few other teams in this division who probably think that they have a claim to this distinction, not the least of which is the Chicago Cubs, a team with some impressive early stats to back up their case. Let’s take a look at some of the numbers going for the Cubs and the Pirates as we close out the month of May. Then, when you’re good and pumped about the Pittsburgh Pirates tickets or Chicago Cubs tickets you’re going to buy soon, start searching for some good deals.

Here’s the scoop on the Pirates’ offense: The Pirates are ranked No.4 in the National League in total runs scored (285), as of June 3, 2008. Adam LaRoche’s has not even had a comeback, and yet the Pirates are getting plenty of scoring opportunities. Ryan Doumit, Nate McClouth and Xavier Nady were all batting over .300 as of May 16th, 2008. The Pirates still lack home run power, but they are getting lots of hits, walks and doubles. It’s been a great year for offense in Pittsburgh. We can only hope that the Pirates can keep up the good work, as they are right in the thick of things in the NL Central. Who knows? If the Pirates can get LaRoche back on track, they might even be able to get to the top of the division standings. Anything’s possible right now. There could even be Pittsburgh Pirates tickets available for the playoffs.

And now the Cubs: As of June 3, 2008, the Cubs are the number one team in the National League in scoring runs. They have a total of 331 runs on the year. They have the second most hits (589), and the most doubles. Their home run power improved from last season, as they now have 63 home runs, the fifth best in the NL. Team batting average is the best in their league at .288. Basically, the Cubs could not have asked for a better start to the season as far as offense goes. If you are looking to see one of the best offenses in baseball, get some Chicago Cubs tickets for a game or two this summer!

So there you have it. The Cubs and the Pirates are both hitting the ball very well, and it would not be surprising to see either of these two teams make the playoffs behind the healthy hitting their doing. Buyers of Pittsburgh Pirates tickets and Chicago Cubs tickets will be hoping that they can keep up the power in the batters’ box.

Does anyone know where this hat came from, or if there is a way to purchase this hat?

Casey Stengal wore the hat at an old timers game for all the teams he played for and managed.
