Even the warm and fuzzies of Andrew McCutchen's return to PNC Park couldn't slow the Pittsburgh Pirates' offense Friday, a train that has been chugging during a four-game winning streak.
The Pirates' 11-2 win over the San Francisco Giants upped their run total to 36 over the four games going into Saturday's second game of a weekend series.
"We're just having a lot of fun. I think that's the best part about it when you're on a roll like we are," said Pirates shortstop Jordy Mercer, who is 8-for-17 over a four-game hitting streak that matches the team's winning streak.
