Here’s a look at the Pittsburgh Pirates winter leagues action from Tuesday night:

In the Dominican, Rodolfo Castro went 0-for-4 with a walk and a run scored. His run was a walk-off run in the ninth inning of a 5-4 win. He’s hitting .214 now, with a .795 OPS in 13 games.

Hunter Stratton made his third appearance and he tossed a scoreless inning on one hit, no walks and no strikeouts. He gave up two runs over 1.1 innings in his first two games.

In Puerto Rico, Michael Perez went 1-for-3 with his second double and a walk. He’s hitting .136 with a .524 OPS.

John started working at Pirates Prospects in 2009, but his connection to the Pittsburgh Pirates started exactly 100 years earlier when Dots Miller debuted for the 1909 World Series champions. John was born in Kearny, NJ, two blocks from the house where Dots Miller grew up. From that hometown hero connection came a love of Pirates history, as well as the sport of baseball. When he didn't make it as a lefty pitcher with an 80+ MPH fastball and a slider that needed work, John turned to covering the game, eventually focusing in on the prospects side, where his interest was pushed by the big league team being below .500 for so long. John has covered the minors in some form since the 2002 season, and leads the draft and international coverage on Pirates Prospects. He writes daily on Pittsburgh Baseball History, when he's not covering the entire system daily throughout the entire year on Pirates Prospects.
