Pirates Extend MLB Winning Streak Against Cardinals

News summary

The Pittsburgh Pirates have extended their strong run of form with a convincing 7-0 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals, marking their fourth consecutive win by at least seven runs, the longest streak since 1925. Andrew Heaney and Chase Shugart combined for a four-hit shutout, while Spencer Horwitz and Ke’Bryan Hayes led the offensive charge, with Hayes extending his hitting streak to nine games. The Pirates have been riding impressive offensive performances recently, including a 12-1 win over the New York Mets where Oneil Cruz hit two home runs. The Cardinals, currently in postseason contention, arrived in Pittsburgh following a strong 10-3 run over 13 games and a recent sweep of the Guardians, but struggled against Pittsburgh’s pitching and offense in this game. Despite Erick Fedde’s solid start, the Cardinals were overwhelmed in a six-run fifth inning, and Fedde’s struggles against the Pirates’ power hitters were notable. Oneil Cruz, a key Pirates player, has been hitting particularly well against the Cardinals and is expected to continue shining, especially given the favorable matchup against Fedde and playing at home.
