Eighth Inning


In a pivotal eighth inning for Pittsburgh, they extended their lead by scoring two additional runs thanks to some timely hitting and strategic base running. Despite efforts from players like Jake McCarthy who had been batting .500 previously and contributed hits throughout this game too; Arizona couldn't close any gap created by these late-game surges.


Ninth Inning


Heading into what would be their final chance in the ninth inning; trailing behind significantly -the Diamondbacks tried rallying back but ultimately fell short without scoring any runs across all innings played today resulting in an overall scoreline of 6-0 favoring home team: Pirates over visiting side: Diamondbacks (Diamondbacks vs Pirates recap).
