## Resource

On tonight’s NS9 Postgame Show powered by Primanti Brothers, DiNardo and Jim break down the Pirates’ brutal 11-9 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies after blowing leads of 6-0 and 8-3. The offense did its job, Braxton Ashcraft gave them enough to win, but the late innings turned into a disaster as Mason Montgomery, Gregory Soto, and Dennis Santana could not close the door.
