NS9 Postgame Show: Cold Night, Hot Bats — Pirates Thump Cardinals 8-4

The Pittsburgh Pirates took down the St. Louis Cardinals 8-4 on a frigid night at PNC Park, and Jim and Neil are here to break it all down on this NS9 Postgame Show powered by Primanti Bros. Carmen Mlodzinski delivered a strong first start of the season, Thomas Harrington picked up a rare four-inning save, and the offense finally came alive—led by Joey Bart’s breakout game, Andrew McCutchen’s continued hot streak, and big contributions from Ke’Bryan Hayes and IKF. The guys also talk bullpen flexibility, the state of the lineup, and why this felt like the first comfortable win of the year. Plus, we gave away some Primanti’s sandwiches and looked ahead to tomorrow’s Paul Skenes vs. Sonny Gray showdown.
