Pirates DESTROY Cubs 12-1, Hand Them Tenth Straight Loss
Description
The Pittsburgh Pirates crushed the Chicago Cubs 12-1 in one of their most complete wins of the season, and Cody and Jim broke it all down on the NS9 Postgame Show powered by Primanti Brothers.
Esmerlyn Valdez made an immediate impact at PNC Park with a massive two-run homer, an outfield assist, and another reminder of why Pirates fans are already buying into the energy he brings. Braxton Ashcraft continued his outstanding run on the mound, working deep into the game again with elite efficiency, strike throwing, and poise in big spots.
The guys also discussed Konnor Griffin setting the table, Bryan Reynolds delivering in his 500th game at PNC Park, Oneil Cruz’s strong night against left-handed pitching, Spencer Horwitz continuing to hit, Brandan Bidois looking sharp out of the bullpen, and Dennis Santana trying to work his way back into form.
Plus, the Pirates handed the Cubs their 10th straight loss and made them fly the L after a 12-1 beatdown at PNC Park.
