Pirates Undefeated No More: Bubba & Barco Debut + Jared Triolo Interview + Don Kelly Presser

North Shore Nine Podcast (Presented by FanDuel) — Pirates vs. Yankees Spring Recap (Feb. 23)

The Pirates took their first loss of Grapefruit League play, falling 6–2 to the New York Yankees, and Jim and Tyler break down everything we saw from a very windy day at the ballpark.

We dive into Bubba Chandler’s first spring start, including a dominant, ultra-efficient first inning with triple-digit heat before command wavered in the second. Plus, thoughts on Hunter Barco, Dennis Santana, and why Gregory Soto looked sharp in his debut.

On the offensive side, we discuss Oneil Cruz leading off versus a lefty, ripping another hard-hit single, stealing second, and looking more comfortable in center field on a day that could’ve gotten messy. We also highlight Marcell Ozuna’s situational RBI and why this lineup is starting to feel deeper and more dangerous.

Tyler also sits down with Jared Triolo for a quick interview on what clicked late last season, his offensive mindset, and why versatility matters.
