For the fifth-best Pittsburgh Pirates game of 2023, we journey back to June 11 when Andrew McCutchen made history at PNC Park against the New York Mets.
Sitting at 1,999 hits for what felt like ages, Cutch wasted no time in his first at-bat, taking an 86 mile per hour slider to left field to clinch his 2,000th career knock.
The Mets struck first in the run column after Jeff McNeil launched a solo home run in the top of the fourth, but the Pirates answered back in the bottom half with two runs.
