The Pittsburgh Pirates’ new engine overheated as it struggled to perform.
Bae Ji-hwan (25-Pittsburgh Pirates) went 0-for-4 with a walk in the ninth inning of the 2024 Major League Baseball home game against the San Francisco Giants at PNC Park in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on Thursday.

The next batter, Brian Reynolds, attempted to steal second on a wild pitch, but was thrown out at the plate by catcher Patrick Bailey.
