The Joe Nuxhall Memorial Honorary Star of the Game(s)
Jose Peraza had a combined four hits today. I'd write more, but things really didn't go that well.
Honorable mention: Adam Duvall, Scott Schebler, and Ramon Cabrera all homered today.
Key Plays
Game 1
- The Pirates jumped all over Anthony DeSclafani in the first inning. Matt Joyce walked, Josh Bell doubled, and Andrew McCutchen hit a two-RBI single to lead off the game. Later in the inning, Francisco Cervelli drove in McCutchen. Pittsburgh scored their final run of the first when Alen Hanson reached on an error.
