The Pirates completed their sweep of Colorado with a 14-3 laugher. Yes, the Rockies are really bad, but this is how it’s supposed to work against bad teams. So, it counts.
The rout got underway quickly. Ke’Bryan Hayes led off the first with a double and Andrew McCutchen doubled with one out. Eventually in the inning, Carlos Santana drove in a run with a single, Connor Joe doubled one in, and Jason Delay singled in two. That made it 5-0.
The Pirates added four in the second to make it officially a blowout, then added three in the sixth and two against a position player in the top of the ninth.
