Home Field Advantage: Boshnjaku, Pittsburgh Open Wildcard Series with Win
The Pittsburgh Pirates powered past the visiting San Diego Padres, 5-4, in the opener of the Wildcard Series at PNC Park today. Pittsburgh center fielder Micah Boshnjaku was 2 for 3 with 2 singles and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once, to lead the charge. The Pirates now lead the series 1-0.

Had Chiel Palstermans not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Palstermans hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 5-4, in favor of the Pirates.

"Say want you want about this team, they play nine innings hard," said Pittsburgh manager Sam Mcg Pittsburgh.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at PNC Park in Pittsburgh.
