POPS AND CUTCH: Andrew McCutchen is one home run shy of hitting 20 or more in seven consecutive seasons...the only Pittsburgh player to accomplish this feat is Hall-of-Famer Willie Stargell, who did so in 13 straight campaigns between 1964 and McCutchen s 194 career home runs rank fourth on the club s all-time list behind Stargell (475), Ralph Kiner (301) and Roberto Clemente (240); he passed Barry Bonds (fifth with 176) earlier this season.
