Cruz's Historic Start Boosts Pirates' Playoff Hopes
Description
The Pittsburgh Pirates are surging, with shortstop Oneil Cruz leading the charge. Cruz recently hit his tenth home run, joining an exclusive club of players with ten homers and fifteen stolen bases before their teams fortieth game. This puts him in the company of Eric Davis (1987) and Lou Brock (1967), both of whom had stellar seasons following their hot starts. Cruz, however, is still seeking his first All-Star nod. The Pirates currently sit at 22-19, and if Cruz maintains this pace, playoff talk could become a reality.
