Pirates Blow 2-Run Lead in 9th, Lose to Tigers in Heartbreaker
Description
The Pirates looked like they were cruising toward win No. 82 until everything unraveled in the bottom of the ninth.
Mason Montgomery entered with a 3-1 lead but allowed his first runs since late July, capped by Eduardo Valencia’s walk-off home run as Detroit stunned Pittsburgh, 4-3.
Neil and Doug break down the brutal finish, why there’s no reason to suddenly panic about Montgomery, Oneil Cruz leaving after an injury scare, Brandon Lowe hitting his 35th home run and why bringing Lowe back needs to be one of Pittsburgh’s biggest offseason priorities.
They also discuss Justin Verlander’s final career start, Kirby Yates’ emotional exit, Johan Oviedo reaching 100 strikeouts and another questionable Evan Sisk bullpen decision.
