Gamel, newcomer Nogowski lead Pirates in 11-1 rout over Atlanta

45 days ago, the Atlanta Braves beat the Pittsburgh Pirates by a score of 20-1.

Today, those same Pirates flipped the script on the Braves with a double-digit win of their own by a score of 11-1.

The Braves started the game off with a familiar scene with Freddie Freeman doubling to drive in leadoff hitter Ronald Acuña Jr.

But after that, it was all Buccos.

In his Pirates debut, The Big John Nogowski walked and Ben Gamel brought him home with a two-run shot to give the Pirates the lead.
