There are still regular seats available, as well as the usual bleacher section.

Those amazing Pittsburgh Pirates closed to within one game of first place last night, teaming a 12-11 win over Chicago (in 11 innings) with a Philadelphia loss, 5-2 to the Montreal Expos. The same four teams will hook up again tonight in action that could knot the NL East...
