Pirates POUNDED in Desert, Lose to Diamondbacks 9-0
Description
The Pittsburgh Pirates opened their series against the Arizona Diamondbacks with an ugly 9-0 loss, and this one got away early. Jim and Neil break down a rough first inning that featured defensive mistakes from the Pirates’ outfield, including more concern around Bryan Reynolds and Oneil Cruz playing together defensively.
They also discuss Bubba Chandler’s strange outing, where he walked six but still battled through five innings and kept the Pirates within reach before the bullpen let things fully unravel. Yohan Ramirez struggled, Evan Sisk helped save the bullpen, Dennis Santana had another rough appearance, and Konnor Griffin provided one of the few bright spots with a 415-foot double that somehow stayed in the park.
It was a bad night in Arizona, but the Pirates have Paul Skenes on the mound tomorrow with a chance to flush it quickly.
