Performance Analysis (March-April 2025)

- Offensive and Defensive Struggles: The team exhibited inconsistent offensive performance, highlighted by multiple games where they were held to low runs, such as a stretch where they scored 0 runs in three consecutive games against the Seattle Mariners. Defensively, they experienced difficulties, particularly against stronger teams, leading to several lopsided losses.
- Resilience: Despite the rocky start, the Pirates demonstrated resilience, managing to string together some wins, particularly in June, which included a notable series against the New York Mets where they won three consecutive games.
