Summary
Braxton Ashcraft is heating up this season, posting a 7-3 record and a stellar 3.07 ERA in 16 starts, earning praise from teammates and putting him in the All-Star conversation. His savvy use of the pitch clock—especially throwing with just eight seconds left—has hitters off balance, according to his catcher Endy Rodriguez. Set to face the Phillies in the series opener, Ashcraft’s momentum and impact are key to the Pirates’ success this year. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
