Ranger Suárez - Takes loss despite quality start Suarez (4-1) was tagged with the loss against the Pirates on Saturday, allowing two runs on five hits and one walk while striking out five across seven innings.
Impact After yielding an RBI single to Andrew McCutchen in the first, Suarez kept Pittsburgh off the board over the next five innings and faced the minimum number of batters in three of those frames. However, the veteran southpaw lost the lead for the Phillies in the seventh, when he gave up a solo home run to Henry Davis, and Suarez didn't get enough run support to avoid his first loss of the season. Still, Suarez has logged a quality start in each of his last six starts and sports a 2.70 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 38:11 K:BB across 43.1 innings this season. He'll look to get back in the win column in his next start, tentatively slated for next weekend at home against the Blue Jays.

Henry Davis - Smacks another homer Davis went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Saturday's 2-1 win over Philadelphia.
Impact Davis gave the Pirates the lead for good in the seventh inning, when he took Ranger Suarez deep to left-center field for a solo homer. Davis has gone long in back-to-back games for the first time in his career, and he has been hot at the plate as of late with a .300 batting average (12-for-40) with two doubles, three home runs and eight RBI over his last 13 games. He'll continue to see a heavy workload as the Pirates' top catcher with Joey Bart (concussion) and Endy Rodriguez (elbow) both on the injured list.

David Bednar - Collects eighth save Bednar earned the save in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Phillies, striking out one batter in a perfect ninth inning.
Impact Bednar was brought out for the ninth to protect the Pirates' one-run lead. He needed just seven pitches (five strikes) to get through the frame, four of which came on a Kyle Schwarber strikeout. Bednar has converted on all eight of his save opportunities this season and has a 3.74 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 31:5 K:BB across 21.2 innings. He appears to have reestablished himself as Pittsburgh's closer while Dennis Santana serves in high-leverage situations.
