Pirates tie pro sports record with 16th losing season
Sunday, September 07, 2008
By Dejan Kovacevic, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
SAN FRANCISCO -- The Pirates' 11-6 loss to the San Francisco Giants this afternoon at AT&T Park clinched a 16th consecutive losing season, tying the professional sports record set by the 1933-48 Philadelphia Phillies.

No NFL, NHL or NBA team has had so many.

The Pirates had a 5-0 lead through 3 1/2 innings, but the Giants scored 10 times in the bottom of the fourth, eight of those charged to starter Jeff Karstens. It was the first time the Pirates allowed 10 runs in an inning since Aug. 19, 2003, at St. Louis.

Center fielder Nate McLouth exited in the fourth with a gash above his left eyebrow.
