Pirates manager Don Kelly got ejected in the bottom of the eighth after arguing two checked swing calls on Bryan Reynolds, but his team bounced back to win 3-2 in extra innings. Bench coach Kristopher Negrón took over, and the bullpen delivered four scoreless innings to set up the walk-off victory. Kelly admitted the first call was borderline but thought the second was closer — and he believed the umpire’s glance toward the dugout after that call sealed his fate. This isn’t his first rodeo this season — he’s been tossed twice in a three-game stretch in May and earlier this year — but he’s proud of his team’s resilience and “next man up” grit, which keeps them in playoff contention.
