North Shore Nine

The North Shore Nine Postgame Show powered by Primanti Brothers broke down the Pirates’ impressive 3–0 win over the Dodgers. Tyler and Neil celebrated a rare stress-free victory as Braxton Ashcraft battled through command issues but still flashed electric stuff against one of the toughest lineups in baseball. They highlighted how Ashcraft’s growth adds real competition to next year’s rotation and praised Mike Burrows’ continued progress in a bulk role.

Joey Bart’s three-hit night at the plate was noted, though the hosts questioned his game-calling behind the dish compared to Henry Davis. Bryan Reynolds and Andrew McCutchen both went deep, reminding fans how much power can change a game, while the bullpen—despite some shaky moments—kept Los Angeles off the board. The show also touched on Isaac Mattson’s surprising dominance, Evan Sisk’s tightrope act, and how the Pirates’ young arms are giving hope for the future.

It was another fun night of Bucco baseball, and tomorrow brings a marquee matchup: Paul Skenes vs. Blake Snell. Don’t miss the full breakdown—watch or listen to the entire postgame show now!
