Jim and DiNardo react to Ben Cherington’s and Paul Skenes’ post-deadline comments, talk about who needs to step up down the stretch, and preview the Giants series.

The Pirates finally escaped Coors Field with a win, avoiding the sweep with a 9–5 victory over the Rockies. Spencer Horwitz led the charge with a huge day at the plate, hitting 2 home runs, and the bullpen actually held it down after a weekend full of blown leads.

Paul Skenes took the mound today and looked dominant through 5, and then the wheels came off. We discuss the pitching, the lack off offense from everyone not named Peguero, and Donnie Ball. But seriously, THREE homers from Liover Peguero? What a game from him and should we see even more from him?

The NS9 Postgame Show Powered By Primanti Bros.

Ryan and Cody attempt to shake off their disbelief and break down the Pirates 17-16 loss at Colorado. They discuss the Pirates historic 9-run 1st inning and how they blew leads of 9-0, 12-4 and 15-6. They also talk about Thomas Harrington's rough return to the Majors and Santana's first outing as the main guy since the David Bednar trade as he gives up the game-winning home run. Records, Joey Bart's bizarre stat line, Cruz's grand slam, Cutch passing players on lists and the pitching staff just completely falling apart...it's all there in this postgame recap.
