## Resource

The Pirates suffered a crushing 11-2 loss to the Athletics, dropping below .500 for the first time since late March. Pitchers Jared Jones and Carmen Mlodzinski struggled, while Nick Kurtz and Jeff McNeil lit up the scoreboard for Oakland. With eight losses in their last ten games, the Pirates look to rebound Tuesday night against the same team, hoping Mitch Keller can spark a turnaround.
