Ladies and Gents, your Pittsburgh Pirates just keep humming along. Following a Friday rainout, the Buccos took on the Washington Nationals on a Saturday double-header and swept both contests, taking the first game 6-3 and the nightcap by a whopping 16-1 margin.
In game one, Miguel Andujar made his season debut and immediately contributed, driving in Pittsburgh’s first run with a single in the second inning that scored Connor Joe. He then followed that up with a two-run homer in the sixth that was the difference in the game for the Bucs. It put them up 4-2 before the Nats got one back and Pittsburgh added some cushion in the eighth.
