Greg Brown Is Happy With Sunday’s Pirates Victory To Open Spring Training

It could have been a 20-0 loss, and Greg Brown would still be smiling after yesterday’s game. The fact the Pirates won is just icing on the cake.

The longtime Pirates play-by-play man talked with Matt Drzik on A.M. Beaver County about the feeling of calling a “normal” game for the first time in about a year, and how it felt good to travel with the team and see fans in the stands. Brown also talked about the strong performances of Ke’Bryan Hayes, Gregory Polanco, and Todd Frazier in the Bucs’ spring opener in Sarasota.

Byron gives NASCAR another surprise winner at Homestead

Byron gives NASCAR another surprise winner at Homestead
By MARK LONG AP Sports Writer
HOMESTEAD, Fla. (AP) — William Byron gave NASCAR its third surprise winner in three weeks, this one not quite as stunning as the first two at Daytona International Speedway. Byron controlled most of the final two stages at Homestead-Miami Speedway on Sunday and won for the second time in 111 Cup starts. His first one came at Daytona last August and landed him one of the final spots in the playoffs. No one saw that one coming. And few had this one on the radar, either. Byron entered the weekend as a 28-1 shot to win the race.
