The Pirates are guaranteed to finish below .500 for the 20th consecutive season, extending their own record, as they lose to Cincinnati, 4 – 3. The Bucs were 16 games over .500 on August 6th, but for the second consecutive year, a late-season tumble costs them a chance at breaking the hoodoo. They are now 77-82 with three games remaining.
