The Pittsburgh Pirates season started yesterday, and their minor leaguers will look to get things started here shortly.
The Pittsburgh Pirates won their first game of the 2021 season by a score of 5-3 against the Chicago Cubs. For a team expected to finish in the bottom five of the standings, yesterday was a good start. But for the Pirates, the Major League team is not the main focal point, at least in terms of wins and losses.
