HUGE WIN! Pirates Come Back & Hold on in Wild 11-7 Victory Over Phillies

The Pirates looked dead after falling behind 5-0, but their offense completely flipped the game in an 11-7 win over the Phillies. Esmerlyn Valdez homered for the fourth straight game and reached base four times, Endy Rodriguez crushed a three-run homer in the ninth and Braxton Ashcraft battled through six innings after a rough start. Jim and Neil break down the six-run fifth inning, Valdez’s continued breakout, Endy taking control of the starting catcher job, Ashcraft’s ability to settle in and a bullpen that nearly gave another game away. 00:00 Pirates survive a wild 11-7 win 02:25 Esmerlyn Valdez sparks the comeback 07:20 Braxton Ashcraft battles through six 12:35 Pirates score six in the fifth 15:15 This offense can beat teams in different ways 18:45 Evan Sisk escapes against Kyle Schwarber 22:10 Gregory Soto and Johan Ramirez struggle 27:25 Endy Rodriguez delivers the biggest swing 30:20 Pirates offense continues its June surge 34:20 Bubba Chandler faces Christopher Sánchez Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
