Kind of looked like Jackson had a play on that ball, no? That seemed a little odd, he was running backward for it.

Playing it safe is my guess.

This guy reminds me of Joe Kelly. 

[Bulldogboy]

Bauers hitting cleanup is an affront to mlb hitters.

[kevinisaname]

Looks like we may have to score on their bullpen because this kid is dealing.

Yes he is but he should getting tired in a couple more innings.

Bats need to wake up. After the HR Ross has been solid. 4K 4H 1BB in 4IP is exactly what we signed him for.

[kevinisaname]

Rhys! That's a start.

[Underachiever]

Tie game!

[yfinn6]

Atta boy Rhys! 

[Brian]

Who's Ya Daddy! Rhys is.

Velocity is down this inning for Jones and he's lost his command.

fastball has slowed down by 4 mph.

I can see why the Pirates have a low pitch count restriction on this guy.  Great talent though

[BruisedCrew]

I wish Chourio would be more willing to take balls to right field.

He’s shown that he can hit with authority that way, but too often he seems to be pulling off sliders outside when he could be going with them the other way.

He just turned 20 last month so I'm sure it will come in time.

That was a sweet DP

Did that double play get Ross the 6th?

I think you have to put him out there, and have someone ready in the bullpen at the first sign of trouble.

I hope so - he’s only thrown 72 pitches

This Jones kid is electric. Pirates fans have every right to be excited about the future staff.

[liveforoctober]

Milner is going to have 95 appearances this year.

[Brian]

6 inning was a pretty good guess for Pittsburg's Jared Jones because he will be cooked if he comes back out in the 7th. 

[Bulldogboy]

Ortiz cannot play third.

He is the SS next year I would think?

Hoby down the middle.
