Pirates Lose Heartbreaker, Keller Shines

0:00On March 29, Pittsburgh pirates dropped a tough 4-2 walkoff harbaker to the New York Metz in 11 innings at Cityfield Saturday night. Mitch Keller straight dominated on the mound with a gym, but the offense left way too many runners stranded to cash in. Games stayed tight into extras, where things got wild early. Top of the 10th, Nick Gonzalez ripped a single to score automatic runner Brian Reynolds and put the pirates up one nothing. His fire right bad bottom 10, loading the bases and tying it on Lewis Torrance's single against Hunter Barco. Pirates grabbed the lead again. Top 11, when Reynolds punched an infield hit, to plate the go-ahead run. But bottom 11 sealed it. Luis Robert Jr. smashed a three-run walkoff homer to left center, his first dinger since joining the Metz off Barco, who takes the loss. Pirates' mischances sting in a marathon like this. While Keller's shine keeps their staff looking sharp heading into the next series, that's your update from New York Metz News Today, powered by AI.
