North Shore Nine

The Pirates wrapped up their series in Los Angeles with a 9-2 beatdown at the hands of the Dodgers, and the NS9 crew was there to break it all down. In this episode of the North Shore Nine Postgame Show powered by Primanti Bros., Jim and Doug dive into another rough start from Bailey Falter, Kyle Nicolas’ disastrous 54-pitch relief outing, and yet another insane performance from Dodgers outfielder Andy Pages, who torched the Pirates all weekend long.

While the offense went silent after a brief spark in the first, Andrew McCutchen was the lone bright spot with a 4-for-4 day, continuing his strong season. The guys also talk about what makes the Dodgers so infuriatingly good and why this loss only amplifies the frustration from Saturday’s blown opportunity.

With the Cubs and Padres coming to town, the Pirates face a critical stretch that could define their early season.
