Prior to the start of their three game series against the Brewers, the Pirates held a team meeting to discuss the current state of the club. Coming off of a three game sweep to the Indians and possessing the worst record in baseball (4-17) the players gathered in hopes to regroup and turn things around.
The meeting worked. After earning back-to-back wins for the first time in the 2020 season, the Pirates completed a three-game series sweep on Sunday afternoon at PNC Park, beating the Brewers 5-4.
"We really pumped each other up," relief pitcher Richard Rodriguez said of the meeting earning the save in the Pirates Sunday win.
