It’s the Bucs’ worst losing streak in ten years.
It was a day of firsts for Pirates starter Chase De Jong in today’s game against the Nationals at Nationals Park.
One was a good first—he got his first major league hit in the third inning against the Nats’ Paolo Espino. It was a double, even. Good job, dude. (fist bump)
The other wasn’t as good—he was handed his first loss as a Buc.
Fueled by homers by Yan Gomes...
