Pirates' playoff run receiving boost from Cutch

MILWAUKEE -- As the Pirates gear up for a playoff push, they may be getting a return to form from Andrew McCutchen.

If Thursday's game against the Brewers was any indication, the Pirates could be getting the McCutchen of the past seven years. McCutchen homered and laced two singles to the right side of second base, including his 10th-inning game-winning hit 105.6 mph off the bat, according to Statcast™.

"I hit it pretty hard," McCutchen said. "I'm just taking what they give me. If they give me a pitch away, I want to hit it over there.
