Stone prevailed, striking out Jack Suwinski and getting Gonzales to keep the score tied. The Dodgers’ highly-touted prospect who has struggled to establish himself in his first cup of tea in the big leagues, particularly in relation to his fellow young arms, was backed into a corner. A walk to Santana later, the Bucs had the bases loaded with only one out, a laboring Stone, and no one even near getting ready in the bullpen. The ninth-hole hitter Austin Hedges led off the frame with a knock, and after a flyout, and single, Henry Davis came in with the chance to tie the game and did just that with a single.

Needing 37 pitches to complete the opening frame, Sheehan threw the most first-inning pitches by a Dodger starter this season. Sheehan limited the damage in the first by getting Jared Triolo on a strikeout, but even with the two runs, one could argue the bigger damage was in his pitch count.

The first inning was a precursor of things to come. The Pirates were able to chase Sheehan before he could complete four innings, ultimately tacking on five runs off him.
