The postseason ended soon after it began for the Pittsburgh Pirates.
San Francisco’s Brandon Crawford staked the Giants to a 4-0 lead with a grand slam in the fourth inning off of Edinson Volquez.
That’s more than enough runs as the Giants eliminated the Bucs 8-0 in the National League Wildcard Game played at PNC Park.
The Pirates were hoping to win the Wildcard game at home for the second consecutive year.
San Francisco advanced to face the Washington Nationals in the National League Divisional Series that begins on Friday in Washington.
