Summary

Cody and Jim break down the Pirates’ 12-1 beatdown of the Cubs, led by Esmerlyn Valdez’s massive night, Braxton Ashcraft’s continued dominance, and a lineup that finally punished left-handed pitching. The guys also discuss Konnor Griffin’s impact, Oneil Cruz’s strong approach, Brandan Bidois out of the bullpen, and the joy of handing Chicago its 10th straight loss.
