Pirates outfielder Travis Snider struck out Joey Votto

Up is down and down is up; day is night and night is day; pitchers field and fielders pitch. Three days ago, Astros reliever Tony Sipp played right field for the second time this year. On Wednesday night, Pittsburgh outfielder Travis Snider became the first Pirates position player in ten years to pitch at home.The Pirates were down 9-3 to the Reds, and by the end of Snider's outing they were behind 11-3.
