Summary
Nick Gonzales finally broke his 220-at-bat home run drought with a soaring 407-foot two-run blast off Zebby Matthews, ending the second-longest homer drought in MLB history. The Pirates’ third baseman, batting .303 with 60 hits and tied for team lead, credits his center-field hitting style over pulling the ball — even if it means fewer homers — as his sweet spot. His clutch blast wasn’t just personal redemption; it lifted the team, proving his consistent bat remains a vital force even without the power stats.
