Nick Gonzales hits winning single in 9th, Pirates rally for 8-7 win over Phillies
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Nick Gonzales hit an RBI single in the ninth inning and the Pittsburgh Pirates rallied twice from three-run deficits for an 8-7 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Friday night. With the Pirates trailing 7-6, Connor Joe led off the ninth with a single before José Alvarado (1-4) walked Andrew McCutchen. Michael A. Taylor, running for Joe, and McCutchen executed a double steal. Oneil Cruz brought in the tying run on a one-out fielder’s choice. Gonzales then sent a first-pitch cutter through the left side of the infield to defeat the Phillies, who have lost three of their last four games, this one in front of a sellout crowd of 39,530, the largest in the regular season at PNC Park since April 13, 2015. “I don’t think so,” Gonzales said when asked whether he’d played in a more memorable game. “Just the back and forth, especially against them, it’s pretty cool to do. It kind of shows that we can compete against the best.”
