Pirates edge toward balance as Crabtree wins Reds centerfield job
In season games to date the Pirates trail 14 to 5 against the Reds with Estel Crabtree nearly locked into the Reds centerfield role after a hard struggle. Crabby improved at the plate this year with a changed stance and is set to fill the gap as Taylor Douthit faltered with Redland fans boos.
