Braxton Ashcraft is becoming a star too, he was fantastic last year. Not many pitchers, even big leaguers have 2 elite breaking pitches oh and then 98mph
These Buccos are looking DANGEROUS
Cruz is hitting. Cant believe my eyes. No seriously though. He mustve been working in the off season. Keep it up.
As a Pirates fan,I'm honestly disappointed in Chicago. They were practically handed a win on a silver platter in the 11th, and still couldn't even tie it with 0 outs.
Way to Go Pirates way togo! GO Pittsburgh!!
Let’s go Pittsburgh
