Endy Rodriguez Returns & Helps Pirates Beat Rockies

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Pittsburgh Pirates catcher Endy Rodriguez celebrated his return to the majors in style, driving in a pair of runs as Pittsburgh cruised past Colorado 7-2. Rodriguez was once considered one of Pittsburgh’s top prospects before a pair of elbow injuries forced him to miss most of the last two seasons. Filling in for injured Joey Bart, Rodriguez doubled off starter Chase Dollander in the second and laced a two-run single in the third for Pittsburgh. Dollander struggled before exiting early in the second inning with tightness in his right arm. Troy Johnston hit a two-run double for Colorado.
