Six Pack of Stats: Pirates 4, White Sox 1

You can’t win when you score one run.

While that’s technically untrue, especially when Garrett Crochet is pitching, it is most assuredly true when Crochet is All-Star Game-limited to two innings AND when your offense scores once and musters small-ball hits all game.

Have fun in Texas, Garrett. We don’t blame you if you take the long way home.

Big Swing/Top Play

Nick Gonzales doubled in Connor Joe for a 13.5% WPA swing in Pitt’s favor in the sixth, one of four double-figure swings in the game, all (obviously) very minor changes.
