THE SETUP

What could possibly be worse for the Pirates than just being swept by the National League's worst team? How about facing its very best team? The Giants are fresh off back-to-back riveting comebacks against their hated rivals down at Dodger Stadium and ... ah, no one needs a pregame outlook here, right? I've got your coverage from the Bay Area all weekend.

Oh, and hey, if you're here tonight at Oracle Park, let's have a subscriber meetup right in front of the press box -- the big brick wall in front of it -- at 6 p.m. local time, OK?
