Pirates Bats Wake Up in 6-2 Win Over Cardinals

The Pirates got some much-needed offense Saturday as Brandon Lowe and Rafael Flores each went deep in a 6-2 win over the St. Louis Cardinals.

Tyler and Doug break down Lowe's outstanding season, why Flores needs to be playing every day down the stretch, and a bullpen that has suddenly become a legitimate strength. But even in a win, the Pirates continued to show the sloppy defense, poor baserunning and fundamental mistakes that have plagued them throughout the season.
