The opening game of the Pittsburgh Pirates three game homestand against the Los Angeles Dodgers had it all.
A catcher’s interference on Austin Hedges in the first inning set things up for a two-out, two-run double by Dodgers rookie Miguel Vargas. In the bottom half, Tucupita Marcano followed a single with a stolen base, and then scored on a Carlos Santana single to make it 2-1 after one inning.
In the second inning, the offense showed a spark on the heels of the Bryan Reynolds extension news.
