The Pirates eked one out over the Cardinals last night, snapping a three-game losing streak. Joe Block recaps the Bucs’ win.
With the 331st save of his career, Aroldis Chapman passed John Wetteland for 15th place on baseball’s all-time saves list. Manager Derek Shelton says Chapman isn’t slowing down.
Nick Gonzalez leads the Pirates in game-winning RBIs this season, with ten. He says he tries to keep an even keel and values every at-bat.
The Pirates visit Cincinnati tonight for the first of three weekend games. Mitch Keller (11-10, 3.87 ERA) faces the Reds’ Nick Martinez (9-6, 3.37 ERA). Because of high school football, the game won’t be on WCCS.
