Published:

Welcome to the Pirates Prospects daily video rundown, where we pull some of the top videos of the Pittsburgh Pirates across the internet.

Daily Video Rundown

Blake Sabol

The Altoona catcher extended his hitting streak to seven on Sunday. Sabol collected a pair of key hits, first with his 12th home run of the season, originally giving the Curve a lead.

He would later knock in the deciding run in the 10th inning, giving the Curve the win in extra innings.

Quinn Priester

The former first round pick struck out a season high eight batters on Sunday. He hasn’t given up an earned run in his last three outings including this one (had an unearned run). Over his past 11 1/3 innings (three starts), Priester has allowed just seven hits, two hit batters, three walks and 17 strikeouts.

Travis Swaggerty

Another former first round pick for the Pirates, Swaggerty hit his sixth triple of the season on Sunday for Indianapolis. It was his 20th extra base hit of the year.

Tucupita Marcano

Marcano hit his first home run of the year with Indianapolis, his third overall in the minors. A sweet look from behind showing him connect and admire his work for a second before rounding the bases.
