Tough Loss for the Pirates: Diamondbacks Win 4-3​

Hey Pirates fans! 😢 Another tough one tonight as the Diamondbacks edged us out 4-3. Let's break down the key moments from this nail-biter. Here's your game summary:

Hot Start for the Buccos! ⚾

We had an electric start to the game! In the top of the 1st inning, Andrew McCutchen walked to get things rolling. After Oneil Cruz struck out, Nick Gonzales singled to left, sending Cutch to third. Then, after Rowdy Tellez got hit by a pitch, Joshua Palacios came through with a clutch single to right, bringing in McCutchen and Gonzales. We were up 2-0 early! 🌟

Adding Another Run in the Second​

Joey Bart singled to center to start the top of the 2nd inning. Michael A. Taylor then bunted out but, Cutch came back with a double to center, scoring Bart and making it 3-0 in our favor! We were looking good and confident at this point! 😎

D-backs Start Their Comeback 😬

The Diamondbacks got on the board in the bottom of the 3rd when Corbin Carroll tripled and was brought home by a sac fly from Ketel Marte. The score was now 3-1. They continued to chip away in the 6th inning. Joc Pederson blasted a solo homer to make it 3-2. Christian Walker walked, and Gabriel Moreno followed with a single that allowed Walker to score thanks to some sloppy play. Then a wild pitch allowed another run to cross the plate. Suddenly, it was 4-3 in favor of the D-backs. 😓

Missed Opportunities in the Late Innings​

Unfortunately, our bats went cold at the wrong time. After Bart and Taylor walked in the 7th, McCutchen, Cruz, and Gonzales couldn't bring them home. In the top of the 8th, we had a chance with Palacios on third and Ke'Bryan Hayes on second after a steal, but Bart struck out to end the threat. 😩

Last Chance in the 9th​

Our last hope came in the top of the 9th when Cruz singled to center with two outs. However, N. Gonzales struck out swinging to end the game. What a tough pill to swallow. 💔

---

That's a wrap for tonight's game, Pirates Nation. Despite the early lead, the Diamondbacks pieced together a comeback, and we just couldn't respond. Keep your heads up, and let's get 'em next time! 🏴‍☠️
