Summary
The Pirates just stunned the Mariners to clinch their series and hit the .500 mark for the first time since 2015—41-41 at the season’s midpoint. Manager Don Kelly celebrates the milestone but keeps his foot on the gas, warning that the second half will be tougher and they must elevate their play to chase playoffs. The team knows they’ve got untapped potential, are focused on minimizing mistakes, and are hungry to play more consistent baseball. Up next: a three-game homestand against the Reds starting Friday—perfect timing to build on momentum and keep climbing. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
