Pirates Blow 5-Run Lead to Cubs; Lose 7-6

Pirates blow a 5-run lead in Chicago and DiNardo and Doug break down everything from a brutal 7-6 loss to the Cubs on this NS9 Postgame Show Powered by Primanti Bros. The guys react to the collapse, Justin Lawrence’s rough outing, the costly defense, and the missed chance to finish off a sweep at Wrigley. They also hit the bigger picture after the Pirates still took 2 of 3, talk about Oneil Cruz continuing to look like a true catalyst at the top of the lineup, Brandon Lowe’s early grand slam, and what this game says about the team’s biggest strengths and weaknesses right now. Plus, they open the show by remembering Phil Garner and his impact on Pirates history.
