Joey Bart Walks Off The Cardinals On Wednesday
1 week agoPittsburgh Pirates catcher Joey Bart hit a walk-off single with the bases loaded that made it all the way to the warning track in the 2-1, 13-inning victory over the division-rival St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday in the series finale at PNC Park. Bart finished the game 2-for-5 with the game-winning RBI and a strikeout. The 28-year-old backstop was involved in a scary collision with first baseman Endy Rodriguez in the top of the eighth inning, but both players ended up being OK and stayed in the extra-inning contest. Bart entered Wednesday's series finale with the Cardinals hitting .265 (9-for-34) with a homer, double, triple, four RBI, a stolen base, four runs scored, four walks and 13 strikeouts in 39 plate appearances over 10 games played. He will continue to be Pittsburgh's primary catcher after hitting a career-high 13 homers in just 80 games in his first year with the team in 2024.
