WASHINGTON -- The talk of the Pirates over the past several weeks have heavily focused on the youth of the organization making their way to Pittsburgh to begin the process of building the next core of players that hope to contend.
But what many of us were reminded of in the Pirates' 8-7 win over the Nationals is there are already a few players in Pittsburgh that are capable of playing on a championship team. On Wednesday at Nationals Park, we were all reminded of just how good Bryan Reynolds is, as he became the sixth player in Pirates history to hit three home runs in one game off three different pitchers -- just 10 days after Jack Suwinski did the same on Father's Day.
