Pirates fall short again, losing 2-3 to the Cubs in a heartbreaker fueled by wasted chances — especially in the fifth inning with bases loaded and no outs. After a shutout loss to the Yankees, the offense continues to struggle, squandering prime opportunities with shallow fly balls. But there’s light: Jared Jones dominates with a stellar six-inning outing, giving up just one run, despite being pulled early due to injury concerns. The bullpen steps up, led by Mason Montgomery’s electric 101 mph strikeout of Pete Crow-Armstrong. Though the loss stings, the team remains just two games out of a playoff spot, showing resilience and determination to bounce back.
