Live Mint  

Javier Rivas hit a walk-off solo home run to complete a three-run uprising and hand the Pittsburgh Pirates a 3-2 win over the visiting Philadelphia Phillies in spring-training action on Tuesday in Bradenton, Fla. Scoreless through eight, the Pirates got on the board with a pair of RBI sacrifice flies by Nick Yorke and Bryce Johnson before Phillies reliever Josh Hejka replaced Devin Sweet and Rivas blasted the game-winner to left center. Red Sox 4, Yankees 4 Anthony Volpe hit two RBI singles for New York as it drew with visiting Boston in Tampa, Fla. Volpe's second single scored an additional runner thanks to a fielding error in center by Trayce Thompson, which made it 4-2 Yankees. Masataka Yoshida hit a two-run homer for the Red Sox while Walker Buehler worked five innings and allowed two runs on three hits, fanning four. Marlins 4, Cardinals 4 Connor Caskenette's pinch-hit RBI single tied the game in the top of the ninth as Miami finished all square with host St. Louis in Jupiter, Fla. Nick Fortes had an RBI double and Xavier Edwards added a run-scoring single for the Marlins.
