Worth noting

• Paul Goldschmidt started Saturday's game with MLB's fourth-ever 26-game hitting streak spanning two seasons. The first to do it? Pirates shortstop great Dick Groat, 1961 to '62. Also to accomplish it were Ralph Garr (1971-72) and David Wright (2006-07).

• The Pirates' 2014 Media Guide runs 352 pages. Hefty, but not even in the same ballpark as the media guides of the A's (652 pages) and the Red Sox (612).

• McCutchen's two-run triple Friday night gave him 201 RBIs at PNC Park, tying him with Jack Wilson for second-most at the yard. Jason Bay drove in 241 runs at PNC Park, including one as a visiting player.
