Yankees get revenge, dump Pirates 16-0

It was another big crowd at PNC Park on Wednesday night, but this one left in disappointment, as the New York Yankees got some major revenge on the Pittsburgh Pirates by defeating them 16-0.

The game didn’t get out of hand until later, and the Buccos actually started it off pretty well, with Mitch Keller getting the start. Though he didn’t have top-notch stuff going, he was good enough to hold the Yanks scoreless through four inning before the Bronx Bombers got two in the fifth on a two-RBI single by DJ LeMahieu and then two more in the sixth from back-to-back solo homers by Josh Donaldson and Joey Gallo, which spelled the end for Keller.
