Pirates pitcher Charlie Morton didn't factor into Saturday's decision after giving up two earned runs on five hits and one walk in seven innings and striking out three in his team's 3-2, 11-inning win over the Rockies.
Morton took a 1-0 lead into the seventh inning but fell behind after a two-run blast by Carlos Gonzalez. The Pittsburgh offense was able to even things up in the eighth and take the starter off the hook. Morton owns a 3.28 ERA and 103:43 K:BB ratio in 126 1/3 innings. He's set to face the Rockies again Friday.
