INJURIES

Three hits, steal in win Cruz went 3-for-6 with a stolen base and three runs scored in Saturday's 13-3 win over the Giants.
Impact Cruz was in a bit of a slump prior to Saturday, going 1-for-14 with two walks and four strikeouts over his previous four games. He broke out with a strong game atop the order, which included his third steal in the last four games. Cruz is now hitting .256 with a .783 OPS, nine home runs, 28 RBI, 29 runs scored, 14 steals and six doubles across 38 contests. He's made some gains in power without sacrificing speed on the basepaths, but Cruz's 33.7 percent strikeout rate remains alarmingly high, especially for a leadoff hitter.

Cruz delivers go-ahead hit in the 8th as Pirates top Reds 1-0 to complete a 3-game sweep

Oneil Cruz hit a tie-breaking single in the eighth inning, leading the Pittsburgh Pirates to a 1-0 win over the Cincinnati Reds to complete a three-game sweep

Scores twice in big win Cruz went 2-for-6 with two runs scored and an RBI on Saturday against the Reds.
Impact Nearly every hitter in the Pirates' lineup delivered counting stats in a 17-7 win, and Cruz contributed to significant rallies in the first and fourth innings. He's had a mediocre homestand across six games, going 6-for-24 with three RBI and six runs scored. Cruz has had a very impressive start to the season, though his 35.8 percent strikeout rate remains a significant red flag in his skills profile.
