PIRATES STAY HOT

We are officially LIVE in Bradenton for Spring Training and the vibes are HIGH 🔥

On Day 1, the Pittsburgh Pirates take down the Tampa Bay Rays 4-1, and the young Bucs are making serious noise.

💣 Yordnany De Los Santos and Javier Rivas both go deep to power the Pirates to victory. The youth movement is REAL — and it’s showing up early this spring.

🎙️ We also bring you exclusive interviews:

  • Former big leaguer Xavier Scruggs breaks down the outlook for the 2026 Pirates.

  • Mike Clevinger joins us after tossing 3 scoreless innings and talks adjustments, mindset, and spring goals.

  • Ryan O'Hearn sits down with us again to discuss clubhouse energy and his approach this camp.

We recap the game, break down standout performances, and talk about what this win means as momentum builds early in camp.
