Welcome to Double Shot of Pirates.

I'm Dan Kovachvich of D.K. Pittsburgh Sports.

This program comes your way at 3 p.m. Eastern time every weekday.

Sometimes that's really convenient. And then

there's days like this. We're there in the ninth inning. We're just going to deal with it today.

If you're watching this instead of paying attention to the game, here's what we're going to do.

I'm going to set this up as if we're just going to watch this later.

You're just going to like turn this on later.

That's why I have nobody in the comments right now.

RVN comes in here.

Yeah, RVN says he's got both of them on.

Good for you, dude.

But you can see the ninth inning for

yourself. The Pirates actually have a little bit of a rally going with a four-three lead in the top of the

ninth of their first two guys are aboard Spencer Horowitz single in the center and Henry Davis was just hit by a pitch. So we'll see what comes of that.

What I'm going to share with you instead,

and hopefully this will come in handy if you watch this later in particular,

is a general impression that I got from this team in my week with them just now in New York.

Who they are, what they're about, who's doing the leading, who's doing the listening in maybe a rarity for certain individuals.

And the number one impression that I have maybe a rarity for certain individuals.

And the number one impression that I have more than any other,

and I try not to mix sports on here, but it's inevitable.
