And today it's Bailey Falter on the hill. The left hander who Thursday against the nationals. John did just enough gave the Pirates five innings allowed three runs. He got the win leading things off is Connor Norby over at third base. Yes, three pitches and a strikeout as Otto Lopez three for eight having himself a good series as well. And that gets a chase and it's back to back strikeouts for Bailey Falter. Here's jake Berger. How about that start? Strikes out each of the three batters he faces and it's jonathan Bermudez getting the ball for the Marlins today. Mel told me that they're going to try to get about 85 pitches out of Bermudez today kind of the shortstop ground ball to the third baseman Norby scoops it up and one away. Here comes Brian reynolds in 19 games this season as a designated hitter has driven in 20 scored 16 runs line to right field and over by the line and kicked by sanchez and it will be a double for Brian Reynolds. The numbers continue to amaze as the DH the pitch came in with a fastball and hit Joey Barris. The Pirates look to jump out early here Gonzalez roller, a little bobble and a drop and Lopez won't get anybody and the bases are loaded loaded for Cruz and the Marlins in the soup right here. 31 from Bermudez almost hit him ball four. Give him an RB I in a one nothing pirates lead, Connor Joe will bat with the bases loaded. Drive to center and this will be plenty deep to bring home Bart Connor Joe sacrifice fly 2 to 0. His 22nd stolen base gets in the scoring position for Brian de la Cruz. 01 pitch to DLC as a ground ball toward the shortstop out of Lopez. Has it, shuffles his feet, throws a strike and the inning is over. So here's bride to lead it off just way up there in the third baseman Triolo for the out. Here's christian Poche fly ball Cruz and six up six down for Bailey Falter. And now Jerry Triolo is coming to drive deep to left field toward the wall and clear the deck. Cannonball coming for big three number eight and a three nothing lead. He's taken advantage of this playing time here toward the end of the year and he has really picked things up. Now, reynolds who doubled back in the first he's aboard and now here's Bart fly ball out toward deep left Stowers halfway under the track makes the catch and the inning is over. Banner for the Marlins will be Kyle Stour with the curveball ball four. There's the Marlins first base runner. It would be tough to turn 21 but they do it, swing at a pop up in the infield to short Kiner-Falefa is there. He's got it and the inning ends , John mcmillan takes over out of the Marlins bullpen and is greeted with a base hit to left field for Nick Gonzalez. Looks like he got a little bit of an injury here. What the Marlins would have wanted. Looks like that might be it for mcmillan's like Xavi Curry is going to come in out of the bullpen. You get set to face o'neil Cruz runner at first base and nobody out that runner goes. This one is popped up Norby racing over Curry trying to get there as well and it will be curry to make the catch. And now Brian de Cruz, that's a ground ball toward the shortstop and a shovel pass for Lopez to the bag. We will hit the fourth inning started out striking out the first three hitters, Norby and another broken bat soft roller to first base where Connor joe will pick it up and tag the bag for the out Jake Berger with two outs and nobody on. It's this one to left center and just cruising over there o'neil Cruz 123. Here's Triolo hit a home run back in the second inning. He's got himself another hit one out single two outs for Brian Reynolds. A ground ball off the mound takes a funny hop Lopez steps on the bag and that will do it facing Jonah Bryde three balls one strike and inside. So the second walk, the second leadoff walk that will bring the heavy hitting Jesus sanchez to the plate to third, the second for 10 one away and it's christian pace. There goes Sanchez a swing and a miss a sidearm sling from Bart, that's a little bit late. The lefty out, a 22 swing and a miss struck about here's ST fly ball to Cruz and o'neill Cruz makes the catch five shutout innings for Falter javier. Soha will lead it off. Still looking for their first hit of the 31 swing and a pop up in the infield to first base. No second. Excuse me and Nick Gonzalez will make the catch and a 12 to Fortes swing and a fly ball to center Cruz started back on it right away. Read it nicely makes the catch. That's the second outer Norby 11 is hit back of third caught by Triolo ranging getting Norby out and that's six no hit innings for Bailey Falter of the Pirates. Bailey Falter begins the frame at 76 pitches. He is yet to yield a hit 31 from falter. This is high. So all three of his walks in the third, the fifth and now the seventh have come leading off in inning, Jake Berger, shallow center field, he's coasting in to make the catch and now Jonah Bride and there it is the first hit of the game six and a third innings of no hit ball and heading to third. Oh my goodness. Lopez is thrown out by Billy Cook. His team down three and that's a big second out. So the no hit bid longest of his career six and a third. It's the longest no hit bid by a pirate this year since Paul scheme went seven. It's the longest no hit bid by a pirate. Lefty John Tutor went six and two third against the Dodgers in 1984. Comebacker to falter. He'll lob it on to first for the final out seven scoreless innings from Bailey Falter. Falter will return for the 8th and 88 pitches. Well, right back up the middle and a base hit for pace and up comes kyle Stour, swing and a little flair into center Cruz coming on, still coming. And he slides and makes the catch hip high sliding feet first for the out. That is going to be it for Bailey Falter as he will go seven and a third innings. Great stuff from the lefty Bailey Falter seven and a third innings, two hits and no runs responsible for that man at first two on two outs. And now Connor Norby and the roller get the batter and Triola will do just that. Colin Holderman keeps it a three nothing ball game and coming on to try to lock it down. Here comes David Bear. Here's Otto Lopez. This one is a fair ball down the left field line, bangs off that side wall Lopez on his way to second, no throw for Billy Cook and a leadoff double. So now it's Berger and he hits it sharply to the shortstop, Kiner-Falefa who got handcuffed on that one. And here we go again. The Marlins have the tying run coming up and there's nobody out 1st and 2nd with nobody out. And here's Jonah Bride. He gets Jonah Bride for the first out. Jesus sanchez of the plate.
