Jack Suwinski doesn't step into the batter's box trying to hit home runs. The Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder is hitting them anyway. The 23-year-old flipped a full-count pitch just over the rail above the Clemente Wall at PNC Park in the sixth inning on Wednesday to erase a three-run deficit, the spark the Pirates used to rally for a 10-5 victory over Colorado.
Randal Grichuk doubles to shallow right field. Ryan McMahon scores. C.J. Cron scores.
Yet with Pittsburgh’s offense stuck in neutral for an extended stretch while the Pirates hoped to secure a series victory over the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday, it was Suwinski and VanMeter who delivered the two biggest swings, their three-run home runs helping to produce a 10-5 victory at PNC Park. Suwinski brought the game to a 5-5 tie with his fifth long ball of the season, the outfielder clobbering a low-and-inside fastball to win a nine-pitch battle.
