In late results from Colombia on Thursday night, shortstop Francisco Acuna made his second playoff start and went 2-for-4 with two singles. He went 0-for-5 with a walk in his first two playoff games, one of them coming off the bench.
From Friday in Australia, Michael Suchy was ejected for arguing balls and strikes in the fifth inning. He was still in the game long enough to extend his on base streak to 17 games. He went 1-for-3 with a single and a run scored. Suchy was back in center field again. As mentioned yesterday, he has been playing there a lot recently despite manning center field just seven times in four seasons with the Pirates.
