The Pittsburgh Pirates can't dig out of the early hole in game one against Rangers.
Pirates starting pitcher Luis Ortiz had a bit of a rocky start to the game, giving up two home runs in the first three innings of the game, both to shortstop Corey Seager. The solo shot in the first came off a cutter right down the middle while the three-run bomb came off a hanging slider. Aside from those two long balls from Seager, Ortiz pretty much breezed through the Rangers' lineup.
In the top of the fourth, Jared Triolo took a big chunk into the Texas lead with a three-run home run that hugged the left field line all the way to the seats. That would be his second homer in three days and with Ke'Bryan Hayes on the shelf, he'll continue to get more opportunities. The Pirates had the tying run 90 feet away in the fifth, but Rowdy Tellez was called out on strikes on a pitch up and in off the plate. In their final four trips to the plate, Pittsburgh failed to get a runner beyond first base. José Ureña was rock solid in four innings of relief for Texas, picking up Dane Dunning who was knocked out of the game shortly after the Triolo home run.4. DH Joey Bart 2-48. 3B Jared Triolo 1-3, HR, 3 RBI, BB2. SS Corey Seager 2-3, BB, 2 HR, 4 RBI7.
