Eddie’s Spring Fling continues Pirates 4, Phils 3 on Osuna’s Blast

By on March 4, 2018

Bradenton, Fla. –  It must have been the stretch… the Pirates trailed 3-1.  In the bottom of the 7th they hung a crooked 3 on Phillies loser Brandon Leibrandt.

After a Jacob Stallings single, a bulk by Leibrandt, Kevin Newman ground rule doubled Stallings to the dish.  This set up the Venezuelan 2-run homer by third-baseman Jose Osuna giving the Bucos a 4-3 lead that bullpen would hold (Kyle Crick) and save (Brett McKinney).

Where will our Eddie Michels show up next…  Probably not Dunedin, right Shelby Nelson???
