## Resource

Pirates slugger Bryan Reynolds sparked chaos in the first inning after challenging a call by umpire Chris Guccione, but the call stood — and the dugout’s noise cost him. Guccione shut down the challenge, citing outside interference, while manager Don Kelly fumed. Umpires sided with Guccione, calling Reynolds’ tap too late. Fans erupted online, reigniting the tech-vs-human debate in baseball. Meanwhile, the Pirates bounced back with a 12-4 win, sweeping the series 2-1. Ryan O’Hearn crushed six RBIs, and starter Braxton Ashcraft earned his sixth win. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
