NYY @ PIT
From early April to the end of May, the Pirates looked lost defensively. They had committed a National League-high 45 errors in 50 games. That streak began April 4 and ended May 26 -- the amount of time the Bucs were without slick-fielding shortstop Jack Wilson because of a left calf strain.
