— Pittsburgh Pirates (@Pirates) July 27, 2026 The on-field batting practice capped off a six-day stay in Pittsburgh for Curiel, who was selected by the Pirates with the fifth pick in this year’s draft. He joined a hitting group of Bryan Reynolds, Ryan O’Hearn and Jacob Gonzalez for his first swings at his future home.
“It felt good,” Curiel said after his round. “The stadium is beautiful. Nice backdrop, beautiful batter’s eye. Couldn’t ask for a better field to hit at.”

— Pittsburgh Pirates (@Pirates) July 27, 2026 Curiel said he hadn’t swung a bat since arriving in Pittsburgh, but he didn’t waste much time before taking some impressive cuts. With third base coach Tony Beasley throwing to him, Curiel hit a couple balls over the wall and into the seats. One deep drive to right drew some aahs from several current Pirates.
