The Pirates wrapped up their stop in Sacramento with a much-needed series win over the Athletics, but it didn't come easy. After a frustrating Game 1 loss, Pittsburgh responded with back-to-back victories to take the series and build momentum heading into the final leg of the road trip.

In this episode, we break down the key performances from the Athletics series, discuss the continued growth of the offense, and highlight the players stepping up when the Pirates need them most. We also preview this weekend's matchup in Colorado, where the Pirates have a golden opportunity to keep the momentum rolling and return to Pittsburgh having turned this West Coast swing into a successful road trip.

All that and more on this episode of Bucco Bantr.

The Pirates missed an opportunity to gain ground at home, dropping 2 of 3 to the Marlins and leaving plenty to discuss heading into a crucial road trip. We break down what went wrong in the series, the continued instability of the bullpen, and whether the lineup can continue to shoulder the burden for a pitching staff searching for answers.

With the Athletics and Rockies next on the schedule, we look ahead to what could be an important stretch for Pittsburgh. We also hand out our Hitter of the Week and Pitcher of the Week awards before wrapping up another busy week of Pirates baseball.
