Deadspin | Youth being served as Giants, Pirates meet

Two teams that have benefited from a recent youth infusion will meet when the visiting San Francisco Giants begin a three-series against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday. Luis Matos, Heliot Ramos and Marco Luciano have provided a welcome spark for San Francisco, which extended its winning streak to a season-high four games on Sunday after completing a three-game series sweep of the Colorado Rockies. Ramos homered in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Rockies to help the Giants record their first series sweep this season.
