Episode Notes

Tyler and Neil react to the Pirates’ 6-3 extra-inning win over the Brewers, as Pittsburgh takes another road series from an NL Central opponent and improves to 16-11. They discuss Mitch Keller’s steady outing, Don Kelly’s decision to turn to Isaac Mattson in a key sixth-inning spot, another strong night from the bullpen, and how the offense eventually broke through against Jacob Misiorowski’s overpowering stuff. Plus, Konnor Griffin keeps heating up, Nick Gonzales continues to deliver with runners on, and the Pirates’ hot start is beginning to feel more sustainable.
