On Wednesday night, the Dominican league game between Leones del Escogido and Aguilas Cibaenas had a lot of interesting for the Pittsburgh Pirates. On one side of the field, Jung-Ho Kang and Edwin Espinal were in the Aguilas lineup. On the other side, Starling Marte was making his winter debut and Pablo Reyes was playing second base for Escogido. The game also included former Pirate minor leaguers Reese McGuire, Willy Garcia and Eury Perez, just for some added flavor.
Marte's debut was the biggest note from this game, but it was a relatively quiet game from the entire group of current Pirates.
