Summary
The Pirates are on fire, sweeping the Twins with a 25-run weekend fueled by Bryan Reynolds’ walk-off homer and a lineup that’s hitting like a house of cards—already scoring over 300 runs, more than half of last year’s total. O’Hearn and Gonzales are stepping up, and Braxton Ashcraft tossed a career-high 11 strikeouts. The bullpen’s getting a major boost with Carmen Mlodzinski’s imminent return, even if his role is fluid—he’s a key piece the team trusts to win. Meanwhile, former Pirates manager Derek Shelton’s back in town, visiting the Clemente Museum and reminiscing fondly about his time in Pittsburgh.
