Alford (wrist) went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts Friday against the Cubs.
Alford was activated from the injured list Friday, and he hit atop the Pirates' order in his season debut. He struck out in his first two plate appearances prior to fouling out to first base. The Pirates have regularly rotated players through the corner outfield spots early on in the campaign, so Alford will have to perform if he hopes to maintain regular playing time.
