Braves Edge Pirates with Yastrzemski’s Clutch Drop | Pittsburgh Pirates News

The Braves crushed the Pirates 10-5, capped by Mike Yastrzemski’s nail-biting grand slam in the ninth. Matt Olson made history with his 25th homer and 740th consecutive game played. The Pirates rallied with back-to-back homers and a two-run shot from Jake Mangum, but rookie Jim Jarvis answered with his first career blast. Despite Bryce Elder’s shaky start, Dylan Dodd shut the door with a perfect inning. A 35-minute rain delay added drama. The Braves head to St. Louis tonight with Chris Sale on the mound, while the Pirates face Milwaukee with Braxton Ashcraft pitching.
