SAN FRANCISCO -- The emotions didn't hit Casey Sadler until late Thursday night, after most of his teammates had left the visitors clubhouse at AT&T Park. That was when Sadler, sitting at his locker after his first Major League appearance in 1,215 days, let his feelings out.
Sadler pitched the ninth inning of the Pirates' 10-5 win over the Giants, giving up three hits as San Francisco scored three unearned runs. It was his first outing for Pittsburgh since April 12, 2015, when he made a spot start for Francisco Liriano at Miller Park.
