The Pirates finished off their weekend series against the No. 18 team in the nation, St. John’s, dropping a 2-1 decision in Queens which gave the Red Storm the series win.
The Johnnies got on the board in the bottom of the first inning via a Gui Gingras single, however, this did not start a trend for the Red Storm because Pirates starter Zach Pendergast went on to throw a six-inning gem, allowing only one run on four hits.
The Pirates got their first scoring opportunity of the game in the top of the second inning with runners on second and first and nobody out.
