Pirates fall 2-1 to Phillies, again in extra innings
Mitch Keller was good again. The Pittsburgh Pirates bats were poor again.
Keller had his fourth straight solid start, going six innings, giving up one run on five hits with three walks and three strikeouts, but Pittsburgh only had four hits on the day, and a Michael Chavis throwing error to third base in the 10th inning allowed Didi Gregorius to score the winning run and send Pittsburgh to their sixth straight defeat, as they fell 2-1 to the Philadelphia Phillies. All six losses in Pittsburgh’s losing streak have come by two runs or less.
