In his last start against the Astros , Sean Burke needed 31 pitches, but he was able to pitch around a pair of leadoff walks and somehow last long enough to throw 5 ⅔ scoreless innings.
Tonight, the Pirates offered Burke no quarter. Burke threw 37 pitches in the first, but they were delivered over the course of 10 batters who piled on five runs before the White Sox could grab bats for themselves.
