The Pittsburgh Pirates face an impossible task today, taking on back-to-back pitching titans Gerrit Cole and Max Fried in a doubleheader against the New York Yankees — a brutal test for a team already down one game and trying to claw back into playoff contention.

The Pirates’ hopes rest on Mitch Keller and Bubba Chandler, but facing two of baseball’s best pitchers in one day is a recipe for heartbreak — or a miracle.
