Jack Suwinski and Jack Brannigan shouldered the load for the Pirates offense tonight, tallying 5 hits, two home runs and 5 RBI. Suwinski is starting to find his swing, finishing with a single, double and home run on the day.
Quinn Priester looked great, covering 4.2 innings, striking out five, and only allowing one run against a lot of Yankee starters. The lone run came on a Gleyber Torres home run.
Kyle Nicolas came in and finished the 5th inning, retiring the only batter he faced.
Luis Ortiz looked solid, covering 4 innings and only allowing one run. Ortiz struck out four, but allowed four hits and two walks.
Jason Delay collected two hits tonight and put together good at-bats. Delay will be an interesting decision on Opening Day, given the uncertain health of Yasmani Grandal.
