Bubba Chandler Shines in his MLB Debut in Win | Rockies vs. Pirates Game Highlights (8/22/25)
The Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the Colorado Rockies 9-0 at PNC Park on August 22, 2025. Braxton Ashcraft notched a career-high six strikeouts to pick up the win, while Spencer Horwitz, Tommy Pham and Alexander Canario homered. Bubba Chandler made his MLB debut, striking out three and picking up his first MLB save. Since saves became an official stat in 1969, he is the first Pirate to earn a save in his MLB debut and one of just four Major League pitchers to earn a 4.0-inning save in his debut.

Skenes, Bubba, Jones, Keller, Ashcraft, Oviedo, etc. If nutting doesn’t send some money on hitters this off-season he needs to resign as owner.
RTJR!!! Crazy how We got Bubba Skenes now lol
that's what you're supposed to do against the Rockies.
Chandler's after Skenes' job lol
Tommy Pham!!!
We just need a few pieces…. A couple bats, some bullpen help and a new Owner, and we could actually compete.
