All 5 teams in the NL Central are at least 3 games over .500 right now.
There are only 2 teams at least 3 games over .500 in the entire American League.
That’s kinda wild, right?

Weird but fun: the Pirates have outscored opponents 23-1 in the 2nd inning this year, which is the best run differential for any team in any inning this year!
It’s Skenes’ 30th start at PNC, and he goes up against Drew Rasmussen (1.13 ERA) Pitchers duel incoming!
Every player on the Pirates offense had multiple hits in the series vs the Nats except Nick Yorke (who unfortunately went 1-15). Good for a team .306 AVG in the series!
And Bubba Chandler is actually pitching today I swear. I triple checked. 🤪
The Pirates so far have only lost two games in a row once…and it was the first two games of the season!
Games after they lost a game since March 30th:
8-3 W
7-1 W
2-0 W
16-5 W
That’s some serious bounce back @Pirates
Just crazy to see humanity send two missions to the moon within a week of each other. Artemis II and Cruz’s HR in the 1st today #letsgobucs . What a time to be alive.
Pirates added talent this offseason, but needed some current players to step up their game to make it all work…and that’s why it’s working! We will discuss some of those guys on @SNPittsburgh before the game…starting in 30 minutes!
Oneil Cruz in his 9 game hitting streak: .361 BA, 4 HR, 12 RBI
Really good seeing Cruz with the huge success vs lefties, but more importantly seeing consistency instead of major peaks and valleys!
