Pirates' Felipe Vazquez: Picks up first win

Vazquez (1-0) earned the win after tossing a scoreless ninth inning Thursday against the Tigers.

Vazquez loaded up the bases with no outs in the ninth inning -- allowing a pair of singles and issuing a walk -- but he was able to retire the next three batters to get out of the inning unscathed. Corey Dickerson then knocked a walkoff homer in the bottom of the frame to give Vazquez his first win of the season. The 26-year-old now owns a 0.93 ERA and 11:2 K:BB through 10 appearances (9.2 innings) in April.
