Episode Details

Kirby Yates delivered a clutch, game-saving performance in the 11th inning as the Pirates edged out the Padres in extra innings, showcasing his electric bullpen dominance since joining the team at the trade deadline. With the bases loaded and one out, Yates escaped the jam without allowing a run, helping Pittsburgh secure a dramatic 12th-inning win. His stellar ERA of 1.69 and sharp command have been exactly what the Pirates needed to turn around their shaky relief corps, while the entire bullpen combined for six scoreless innings. Manager Don Kelly called it playoff-like pressure — and Yates proved he’s more than ready for the moment.
