first things first try and sweep the fish not only in this series but in the season series and the Pirates have never swept a season series of seven games or more and today it's bayy falter on the hill The left-hander Who Thursday against the Nationals John did just enough gave the Pirates five innings allowed three runs he got the win leading things off is Conor Norby over at third base oh did he offer yes three pitches and a strikeout as a Lopez three for eight having himself a good series as well and that gets a Chase and it's backto back strikeouts for Bailey falter here's Jake Burger how about that start strikes out each of the three batters he faces and it's Jonathan Bermudez getting the ball for the Marlin today Mel told me that they're going to try to get about 85 pitches out of Bermudez today Kinder fppa The Short Stop ground ball to the third baseman Norby Scoops it up and one away here comes Brian Reynolds 19 games this season as a designated hitter has driven in 20 and scored 16 runs line to right field and over by the line and kicked by Sanchez and it will be a double for Brian Reynolds the numbers continue to amaze as the DH and the pitch hits that hurt came in with a fast ball and hit Joey bar the pirates look to jump out early here M Gonzalez roller a little Bobble and a drop and Lopez won't get anybody and the bases are loaded loaded for Cruz oh the Marlin's in the soup right here 3-1 from Bermudez almost hit him Ball Four give him an RBI and a one- nothing Pirates lead Conor Joe will bat with the bases loaded drive to Center and this will be plenty deep to bring home Bart well done Connor Joe sacrifice fly two nothing his 20 second stolen base gets into scoring position for Brian De lacruz 01 pitch to DLC is a ground ball toward the short stop a Lopez has it shuffles his feet throws a strike and the inning is over so here's bride to lead it off just way up there in the third basem triolo for the out here's Christian pce Fly ball O'Neal

Fly ball out toward deep left Stowers halfway onto the track makes the catch and the inning is over Banner for the Marlins will be Kyle Stowers outside with a curveball Ball Four there's the Marlins first base runner be tough to turn two one but they do it swing and a popup in the infield towards short ker FFA is there he's got it and the inning ends John McMillan takes over out of the Marlins Bullpen and is greeted with a base hit to left field from Nick Gonzalez looks like he's got a little bit of an injury here not what the Marlins would have wanted looks like that might be it for McMillan looks like xaven Curry is going to come in out of the bullpen he'll get set to face O'Neal Cruz runner at first base and nobody out that Runner goes this one is popped up Norby racing over Curry trying to get there as well and it'll be Curry to make the catch and now Brian Deli Cruz that's a ground ball toward the short stop and a shovel pass for Lopez to the bag we will head the fourth
