Giants vs Pirates live stream information

The San Francisco Giants travel to PNC Park to take on the Pittsburgh Pirates in the National League Wild Card game on Wednesday night. Madison Bumgarner will start for the Giants opposite Edinson Volquez for the Pirates.

Both of these teams were chasing division titles late into September, with the Pirates hanging onto hope for a National League Central title into the very last day of the regular season. Having earned a Wild Card berth instead, both teams are now subject to the excitement and potential heartbreak of a one-game playoff.

Giants’ catcher Buster Posey explained the keys to success in such a high-pressure situation: “It’s all about pitching well, playing solid defense and getting timely hitting.” (via MLB.com). Posey and many of his Giants’ teammates would know, as they have won multiple World Series rings.
