Expect a tight, seesaw contest that ultimately favors Pittsburgh. The Pirates arrive with a hotter hand, having won four of their last five and carrying a slightly better run differential. Right-hander Paul Skenes projects to start and should lean on his upper-90s fastball/slider mix to neutralize Minnesota’s right-heavy middle order. The Twins counter with Joe Ryan, whose fastball deception plays down in cooler March air but whose recent home-run issues remain a concern against a patient Pirates lineup.
Pittsburgh strikes first: Bryan Reynolds works a leadoff walk and Ke’Bryan Hayes drives him in with a gap double for a quick 1-0 edge. Ryan settles, but the fourth inning proves costly when Oneil Cruz ambushes a first-pitch fastball for a two-run shot, stretching the lead to 3-1. Minnesota answers in the fifth as Carlos Correa turns on a hanging slider for a two-run single, tying the game and chasing Skenes after 5.0.
The bullpens decide it. Pirates swingman Carmen Mlodzinski records six high-leverage outs, while Minnesota’s Jorge Alcala surrenders a go-ahead solo blast to Henry Davis in the sixth and an insurance run on a Hayes RBI single in the seventh. Royce Lewis pulls the Twins within one with an opposite-field homer in the eighth, but David Bednar slams the door with a clean ninth, mixing cutters and splitters to strand the tying run at second.
Key factors: Pittsburgh’s superior bullpen depth, better recent defensive efficiency, and Minnesota’s lingering strikeout woes in late innings. Final: Pirates 5, Twins 4.
