Stephen J. Nesbitt's Pirates chat transcript: 06.16.15

Stephen J. Nesbitt: Today's stories: Pirates blast White Sox, 11-0; Former Pirates pitcher Chris Peters re-joins team as left-handed batting practice pitcher; top pick Kevin Newman signs with Pirates; and, lastly, FBI investigating Cardinals for hacking Astros.

Comment From Peter

What is the -gate name for this Cardinals-Astros scandal going to be?

Stephen J. Nesbitt: It's a race to find the best -gate name here. I can't think of a good one, myself. It's tough. The Astros program was called "Ground Control," which doesn't lend itself well to a -gate suffix.
