Pirates Waste 8th-Inning Comeback In Colorado

The Pirates looked dead offensively for most of the night before finally breaking through in the eighth inning against Colorado. Esmerlyn Valdez, Jared Triolo, Bryan Reynolds, and Nick Gonzales helped turn a 2-0 deficit into a 3-2 lead, but the bullpen couldn't hold it.

Tyler and Neil break down another frustrating loss, Bubba Chandler's strong outing, Don Kelly's bullpen decisions, the continued struggles of the relief corps, and whether this team is simply incapable of getting out of its own way.

They also discuss Jake Mangum's costly baserunning mistake, the Pirates' inability to capitalize with the bases loaded in the ninth, and why Kyle Freeland shutting down this lineup is unacceptable.
