Pre-season game for the Pirates, and tune-up for the Netherlands for the World Baseball Classic. Most importantly Pedro Alvarez made his first start at 3rd base, and responded by going 0-4 with 2 strikeouts and an error in the field. Jeff Salazar continues to swing one of the hottest bat's in camp by hitting a solo shot to seal the victory in the bottom of the 8th inning. Rule 5 pick Donald Veal struck out the side in the 6th inning, he has showed to date the power arm Coonely has discussed.
A few of the dutch have connection's with the Pirates including once Pirate 1st baseman/Sausage Race Smacker Randall Simon who is 'auditioning for a job', as well as pitching coach Bert Blyleven.
