The Pittsburgh Pirates and Detroit Tigers battled to a 6-6 tie on Friday, as the team made a late comeback to squeeze out the non-loss.
They got a big performace from Ke’Bryan Hayes, who continues to have a dynamite spring at the plate. Hayes went 3-for-4 with a two-run homer in the seventh inning that got the Bucs back into the game. He’s now batting .353 in the Grapefruit League and the dinger was his fourth of the spring. Hayes only hit five homers all of last season, so this recent power surge is a welcome sight and hopefully he can keep it rolling into the regular season.
