Ep 564: Nick Gonzales & Henry Davis Propel Pittsburgh Pirates Tuesday, Pitching Keeping Team Afloat & More!

On today's episode of Locked On Pirates, host Ethan Smith discusses the Tuesday night victory for the Pittsburgh Pirates that saw the offensive explosion we have all been waiting for as the Pirates had 16 hits and 9 runs against a loaded San Diego Padres squad(on paper), with 4 of the 16 hits coming from Nick Gonzales and Henry Davis. Are the young duo the spark the Pirates needed?

Also, amidst this brutal stretch of June, one thing hasn't been lost by the Pittsburgh Pirates, and that's their starting pitching, which has kept this team from complete implosion and an outside chance of remaining competitive in the NL Central. Can they continue to do so and will the offense continue to give them run support after Tuesday?

Finally, we're in for a good pitching matchup Wednesday as Mitch Keller takes the hill against Blake Snell as part of a game two preview.
