On Sunday in the Dominican, Gustavo Nunez went 1-for-4 with an RBI, walk and run scored. He was the only position player from the Pirates to get an at-bat, though one other played. Edwin Espinal made his debut as a defensive replacement at first base in the ninth inning. He got into six games last winter, his first season in the Dominican. Josh Wall was the only pitcher from the Pirates to play and he worked a perfect inning, striking out two batters and stranding two inherited runners.
In Mexico, Harold Ramirez went 0-for-3 and Carlos Munoz went 0-for-2, but their team won 5-4 with help from a Pirates' player(see below).
