Paul Skenes set the tone early, the Pirates scratched through in the middle innings, and then absolutely blew this one open late. Nate and DiNardo break down a 7-1 win over the Padres, including Skenes mowing through San Diego, Oneil Cruz delivering the big two-run double that got the scoring started, and the eighth-inning burst that put the game away behind big knocks from Nick Gonzales, Jake Mangum, and Konnor Griffin.
The guys also get into the way the Pirates kept adding pressure, the clean work from the bullpen after Skenes exited, and what stood out most from another strong night at PNC Park. If you missed the game, this is your full postgame reaction from North Shore Nine powered by Primanti Bros.
