Pirates Thumped 9-1
Didn’t take long; after a 1-2-3 Adam Wainwright intro, the Cards second batter, Paul Goldschmidt, took an 0-2 fastball from Trevor Williams deep to make it 1-0. The Bucs threatened by loading the bases in the second with no outs after a couple of singles and a bopped batter, but only plated once when John Ryan Murphy walked. There was no more action until the third inning when a walk and HBP to start the frame put St. Louis in business, but they couldn’t cash in. They did the next frame when after a couple of knocks, the Redbirds put runners on the corners. Back-to-back slap singles made it 3-1, then Willy got tough, winning a 10-pitch battle with Harrison Bader. That was his last hurrah at 67 pitches; Chris Stratton got the call and served up an inning-ending pop up. A leadoff single went nowhere for the Bucs in the fifth while Stratton tossed a clean inning.

- Pittsburgh had three hits. John Ryan Murphy was the only Bucco to reach base twice with a knock and a walk.
- Today’s outing was Nik Turley’s first MLB appearance since 2017 with the Twins.
- A little more on El Coffee: Shelty said that Gregory has passed the MLB’s COVID-19 protocol of consecutive negative tests and now just has to get back into game shape. He went out of action a couple of weeks ago with the virus.
- Old Bucco IF Josh Harrison is thought to be near signing a deal with the Nats; per reports, he is in the physical phase.
