The Pirates finally gave fans something to cheer about with a dominant 10-3 win over the Nationals, and the latest NS9 Postgame Show powered by Primanti Bros. breaks it all down. Jim and Neil celebrate a complete team effort, headlined by Paul Skenes‘ bounce-back outing: 6 innings, 1 earned run, no walks, and 6 strikeouts. The offense came alive with 14 hits and an insane 8-for-10 mark with runners in scoring position—led by a three-RBI night from cleanup hitter (yes, cleanup hitter) Enmanuel Valdez.

The show also dives into a bit of baseball history, as the Pirates featured the first-ever battery of two former No. 1 picks in Skenes and Henry Davis. Endy Rodriguez exited early with a finger injury, possibly opening the door for a roster shakeup. The bullpen trio of Justin Lawrence, Caleb Ferguson, and Dennis Santana kept things clean, and of course, the NS9 crew handed out free Primanti sandwiches to lucky viewers.

It’s a packed, feel-good episode—go watch or listen now and relive the best win of the season.
