The Pirates certainly didn't look like a playoff team in their 12-2 loss to the Cubs on Friday night.

They committed seven errors in the game, while totaling just two runs on four hits.

"Our worst game of the season," said Clint Hurdle, who was ejected in the sixth inning. "We stunk tonight. There's always a sense of pride you take out on the field to play your best every night you go out there. Sometimes your best stinks. That's where we were tonight."

The Pirates had not made seven errors in a game since 1985 and finished one shy of the club record set in 1939.

It was the first seven-error game in the majors since Atlanta in a 2004 loss to Colorado.
