The Pirates had an opportunity to build momentum at PNC Park, but instead came away with a frustrating series loss to the Diamondbacks that exposed many of the same issues that have lingered throughout the season. We break down what went wrong, from missed offensive opportunities to bullpen concerns, while discussing whether this club can still find another gear down the stretch.

Then, we turn our attention to a pivotal four-game showdown in Cincinnati against the division-rival Reds. With every game carrying added importance in the NL Central race, we preview the key matchups, what the Pirates need to do to leave Great American Ball Park with a successful road trip, and the players who could make the biggest impact.

Join us as we recap a disappointing series, look ahead to a crucial divisional test, and discuss what this stretch could mean for the Pirates' postseason hopes.
