The proof was out there in the open as the Pittsburgh Pirates rookie spent two innings against St. Louis on Monday watching his pitches miss the strike zone completely or get sent to the outer reaches of PNC Park.Just one of those games, Kuhl said. I know Ive had bullpens like that. Its part of being human. Youre not a robot. Just missing a lot.Same goes for his struggling team.Kuhl gave up three runs before giving way to four relievers who couldnt keep the Cardinals in check and the Pirates saw their losing streak hit seven in a 12-6 loss.A week ago Pittsburgh was well within striking distance of St. Louis for a playoff spot. Now the Pirates find themselves 4 1/2 games behind the Cardinals after dropping below .500 (67-68) for the first time since July 2. Pittsburgh has been outscored 47-22 during its longest skid in two years.Were trying to figure ourselves out and get out of this and get back to playing baseball the way we want to play, shortstop Jordy Mercer said. We just have to keep going. Every day is a new day, a new start.Even if its felt a little too much like Groundhog Day of late. St. Louis pounded out 14 hits -- eight for extra bases -- against five pitchers and wasted little time getting to Kuhl (3-3), who has been steady if not spectacular since joining the rotation full-time a month ago. He was pulled after throwing just 30 of his 58 pitches for strikes in the shortest outing of his brief career.I think you saw a young man battling fatigue out there, manager Clint Hurdle said. He didnt have a lot.Andrew McCutchen hit his 20th homer of the season for Pittsburgh and Adam Frazier added a solo shot but by then it was far too late.Guys are showing up and playing, Hurdle said. Sometimes you just dont play as well as you need to play to win a game.Adam Wainwright drove in three runs and survived five occasionally bumpy innings to pick up his first victory since mid-July.Wainwright hit an RBI-double off Kuhl in the second and added a two-run single in the fourth as the Cardinals held on to the second wild card spot in the National League.dddddddddddd Wainwright (10-8) allowed four runs and struck out five as his ERA rose to 4.61. He hardly needed to be sharp as the Cardinals battered Pittsburghs beleaguered pitching staff.Jedd Gyorko and Matt Adams homered for St. Louis to extend the teams streak of games with at least one home run to a club-record 24.We needed that win, Wainwright said. We need every win that we can get coming down the stretch. Any part that I can play in that is a treat for me, a privilege.Wainwrights double to the wall in center field put the Cardinals in front and Stephen Piscottys two-run double later in the inning gave Wainwright an early cushion, one he flirted with giving away. Pittsburgh touched him for two runs in the bottom of the inning but Wainwright avoided major damage.Jeff Locke came on relief of Kuhl in the third and the Cardinals quickly went to work. Kolten Wongs RBI single against him made it 4-2 and Gyorko opened the fourth with a long home run down the left-field line for his 26th of the year.TRAINERS ROOMCardinals: Piscotty left in the fifth inning after being hit in the wrist with a pitch but manager Mike Matheny said X-rays were negative. ...
