Pirates recall relievers Evan Sisk and Colin Holderman from Triple-A; cut lefty Ryan Borucki
CHICAGO (AP) — The Pittsburgh Pirates recalled left-handed pitcher Evan Sisk and right-hander Colin Holderman from Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday before their series opener against the Cubs in Chicago. In a corresponding move, the Pirates designated lefty Ryan Borucki for assignment. Right-hander Cam Sanders had been optioned to Indianapolis on Wednesday following a 12-5 loss at Milwaukee that extended the last-place Pirates' slide to five games. Sisk, a 28-year-old rookie reliever, was acquired from Kansas City at the trade deadline in a deal that sent starter Bailey Falter to the Royals. Sisk appeared in five games with Kansas City in two stints, in April and May, with no decisions in 5 1/3 innings and a 1.69 ERA. The 29-year-old Holderman last pitched for the Pirates on May 19, and was 0-1 with a 9.00 ERA in 14 relief appearances before being sent to the minors. Over four major league seasons with the Mets and Pirates, Holderman is 8-10 with a 4.12 ERA. Borucki is 15-12 with 4.36 ERA over eight seasons with Toronto, Seattle and Pittsburgh. He was 1-3 with 5.28 ERA in 35 games and 30 2/3 innings with the Pirates this season. Borucki allowed three runs in one inning to the surging Brewers in his final appearance, on Tuesday when Milwaukee routed the Pirates 14-0. ___ AP MLB:

Pirates players weigh in on torpedo bats amid series with Yankees
The Yankees were at PNC Park for the Pirates home opener on Friday, and they brought their torpedo bats with them. The Yankees made quite a bit of noise last week. A lot of it came off the barrel of their bats with a league-record 16 home runs in the first four games of the season. But now other players around Major League Baseball have taken note of the torpedo bat , and some of the Pirates have too. "You know, I was a hitter for a long time, and I know it's really hard," said Pirates pitcher Colin Holderman. "So it doesn't matter what kind of bat you have in your hands, you still have to hit the ball, and so my job is to make sure they don't." Holderman has the difficult job of pitching against Major League hitters, and the torpedo bat, created by the eastern Pennsylvania-based company Victus, could make that job a little harder now. But that hasn't stopped some of the hitters in the Pirates' clubhouse from being a little curious. "I used one a little bit in the offseason. It's not really kind of extreme as you've seen on TV, so not that much," outfielder Jack Suwinski said. "Yeah, why not? I mean, you try a whole bunch of different bat companies, bat models. You might as well try that one," infielder Jared Triolo said. Triolo says he's ordered some new torpedo bats to try out, but he hasn't received them yet, so he can't comment on whether the torpedo bat should be allowed. But Holderman says trying different things to help find an edge is just part of the pro game. "You know, you adapt or die in this league, so I get what they're to do, and I'm just going to make my adjustments accordingly. It's not too big of an adjustment, and I'm just going to do my thing, and I try not to throw it off the barrel anyways, so I'm going to keep the same play on," Holderman said. According to Major League Baseball rule 3.02, the torpedo bat is considered legal. And Victus sells their new favorite model for around $200 apiece.
