Pirates game 7 vs Cubs (Morton vs Jackson)

Post by DragonsDoExist »

8:05pm Root Sports

Just last week these same two pitchers went head to head and the Bucs came away with a 16 inning win. Morton looked good in his season debut going 6 shutout innings and striking out 6 only for the bullpen to give up the lead late.

Tonight's lineup for the Bucs...

Marte CF
Snider RF
Cutch CF
Alvarez 3B
Martin C
Walker 2B
Ishikawa 1B
Mercer SS
Morton SP

And for the Cubbies...

Bonifacio 2B
Kalish RF
Rizzo 1B
Schierholtz RF
Valbuena 3B
Castro SS
Sweeney CF
Castillo C
Jackson SP

Hopefully they can get Bonifacio out this series!

Decent start. Nothing like taking the mound in the bottom of the 1st with a 4-0 lead!

Good to see Pedro starting off well...more consistency out of him over the course of an entire season would be huge.

Dumb out by McCutchen, hate to see that. Other than that, great start. The bats are seeing Jackson well, Morton looks relatively sharp.

I think they're going to need another run.
