For the first time since April 24, the Dodgers do not own a losing record. With a 5-0 victory over the Pirates on Tuesday at PNC Park, the team pulled back to .500, with 30 victories and 30 defeats. Winners of their past four games, the upward trend continues.
A storm delayed the game for 53 minutes. The sun was still shining over PNC Park at first pitch. Pirates starter Joe Musgrove brushed aside the top of the Dodgers batting order by striking out the side in the first. Stripling climbed atop the mound looking to extend an exemplary stretch of baseball from May into June.
