Pirates Walloped By Cards 17-4
Jeff Curry-USA TODAY Sports Joe Musgrove was lit up for 8 runs in 3+ innings and the Pirates started their 11 game road trip with a 17-4 loss in St. Louis.
Clay Holmes came on in relief of Musgrove and allowed three runs in two IP in his first major league outing of 2019. Dovydas Neverausakas entered in the sixth and finished with five runs on his ledger in his inning of work.
The seventh and eighth were manned by Montana DuRapau, who made his MLB debut. He allowed a run on three hits and struck out one.
Every Cardinal starter besides winning pitcher Michael Wacha (3-0) scored or drove in at least two runs. Musgrove falls to 1-4 on the season.
