The Pirates narrowly escaped with a win as the team sidled past the Cardinals 5-4. The victory was familiar territory for the Pirates, who have now won three matchups in a row.
Ally Schaumann spent all seven innings on the mound, and it's clear why: she surrendered three earned (and one unearned) runs on ten hits and racked up nine Ks. She has been nothing but reliable: she hasn't given up more than two walks in three consecutive appearances.
At the plate, Emma Baumann was incredible, going 2-for-3 with one home run and four RBI. She has been hot recently, having posted three or more RBI the last three times she's played. Alix McCarthy also deserves some recognition as she snagged her first stolen base of the season.
