The Pittsburgh Pirates are arguably the hottest team in baseball right now and took advantage of their momentum with a series sweep of the Cincinnati Reds over the weekend. Host Ethan Smith joins Jeff Carr and Steven Offenbaker of Locked On Reds to discuss the Pirates momentum and success so far this season, the shortcomings of the Reds despite solid outings from their starting pitching, how the Reds will adjust and how the Pirates can sustain their good play and how each team will look different when these teams meet again in a few months. All of that and more on today's first episode of Locked On Pirates.
