0:00On May 2nd, the Pittsburgh Pires just tied a wild MLB record against the Cincinnati Reds at PNC Park, issuing seven straight walks in a single, ending to score big. It happened in the bottom of the second, where they plated four runs on those free passes alone, pushing their lead to 9-3 after already, jumping ahead early. Red starter, Red Louder, Guy Inked after three walks, and reliever Connor Phillips came in and walked the next four without recording it out. Matching the record set twice before first back in 1909 between the White Socks and Senators, and then by Pirates Pictures themselves in, 1983. Pirates catcher Henry Davis beat out a potential double play for a fifth run that inning, and they batted around before wrapping it up, turning A, close game into a route. Now Pittsburgh's of 15 runs total, their second highest output this year, and they're cruising toward a four straight win over their division. Closed, showing why they're heating up.
