Longball Leads Bucs to Series Win
The Pirates took the rubber game from the Giants in powerful fashion.....by hitting 3 key homeruns. Aki Iwamura, Steve Pearce and Bobby Crosby all hit their first round trippers of the season leading the Pirates to victory.
Pearce connects on his 2 Run-HR
Not to be outshadowed was Player of the Game SP Charlie Morton who tossed a 3hit shutout over 6 IP before being replaced by a pinch hittter. Morton said, "My stuff felt great tonight. The fastball was consistently in the 93-95 MPH range, and my curve and slider had some bite. It was great to get the run support that the offense gave me."
The Pirates will be off tomorrow before opening up a 3 game set against division rival Cincinnati on Friday Night.
