The Pirates are suddenly one of the most fun teams in baseball, and we’re breaking it all down on this morning's Bucco Brew Powered by De Fer Coffee & Tea.

From Oneil Cruz setting the tone, to the bats finally showing up, to a pitching staff that might be better than expected, there is a lot to get into after a sweep and a wild weekend in Pittsburgh.

Alex Stumpf breaks down a huge weekend for the Pirates after a sweep of the Orioles at PNC Park. He dives into the energy around the club, Bob Nutting’s comments on urgency and expectations, Konnor Griffin’s arrival, the impact from Ryan O’Hearn and Oneil Cruz, and why the path to real contention is at least starting to come into focus.

Tyler and Doug break down the Pirates’ 8-2 win over the Orioles as Pittsburgh completes the sweep at PNC Park. They talk Ryan O’Hearn continuing to rake, Oneil Cruz staying hot, Braxton Ashcraft shoving for six innings, and why this team feels different right now.

The guys also get into the second inning that blew the game open, the growing lineup depth with contributions up and down the order, and how much easier this team is making things on its pitchers. Like, comment, and subscribe for more Pirates coverage from North Shore Nine.
