Pirates 1B Kruse has 3 hits in Win
In the 9-7 River City win over Austin, the impact of John Kruse was substantial. Kruse, who led the AL in OPS with 1.246 in 2019, went 3-4 with a home run, a triple, and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 4. Hippolyte Hardy, the winning pitcher, is now 4-4. He went 5 innings, allowing 3 runs on 6 hits, while fanning 3 and walking 3. The Pirates raised their record to 32-26.

With River City trailing 3-2 in the top of the fifth, Kruse hit a changeup from Ben Rankin for a 2-run home run. It was his 25th home run of the season and put the Pirates ahead, 4-3.

"Winning is contagious," said Kruse. "We're looking forward to the next game."
