There are 17 players across Major League Baseball.

We have double-digit home runs already.

Brandon Lau is wonderful.

Good morning to you.

Good Friday morning.

I'm Daniel Kovach, which of D.K. Pittsburgh Sports.

This is Daily Shot of Pirates presented by our friends at the North Shore Tavern, home of steak on a stone.

This program comes your way bright and early every weekday. If you're into football and or hockey,

I also offer daily shots of Steelers.

Penguins in the same place that you found this. Pirates four Diamondbacks two yesterday in Phoenix.

Mitch Keller with yet another solid start. Never take him for granted. Six innings, two runs, four hits.

His ERAs at 2.87. Dennis Santana, Mason Montgomery, Isaac Mattson, and Gregory Soto rounding out the final three innings of scoreless relief. Joey Bard, one of the

beleaguered catchers at a home run as well as an additional hit. And Lau, as in wow, with his second first-hning home run in his many days, he now has 10 on the season.

For the day, he'd go three for five, and it just doesn't stop with this dude and by that I mean the ball

screaming off his bat just doesn't stop with this dude he's 5-9 181 pounds and that

swing puts every ounce of charge into that follow-through. The two home runs in this series, and I know

they don't count extra when you hit them far, but still, straightaway center in Phoenix over the very,

very tall backdrop that they have at Chase Field, and then just crushing one

out to right yesterday. More than 800 feet total between the two, this was Don Kelly on Lau's latest.

Well, I'll stick with a theme, Lao's latest wows. It's unbelievable.

You know, it's really impressive the way that he's able to power the baseball.

And then the every, he seemed like he was really locked in with the, even the last out.
