The Pittsburgh Pirates lost to the Chicago White Sox 10-3 Wednesday afternoon, and were swept in their short two-game series. Trevor Williams allowed eight runs on 10 hits over six innings. Jacob Stallings and Cole Tucker had two hits each.
The Pirates have traveled to St. Louis for a doubleheader today. First game begins at 3:15pm. Pre-game begins at 2:50pm on WISR 680am.
The Pirates play four games in Milwaukee beginning Friday. They are 7-19 this season for the worst record in baseball.
Former Pirates pitcher Gerrit Cole had his 20-game win streak snapped Wednesday with a 5-1 loss to the Atlanta Braves. Cole had been unbeaten in 28 consecutive regular-season starts, two shy of the Roger Clemens all-time mark. Cole’s only loss in the last 15 months had come in the World Series opener last year against Houston.
