  • Flores is not in the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Cardinals.

    Henry Davis has been Paul Skenes' personal catcher this season, so it will be Davis behind the dish for Skenes' final outing in 2026. Flores went hitless in the first two games of the series.

  • Flores went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Wednesday against the Brewers.

    Flores went deep in the sixth inning to tally his ninth home run of the season. He also extended his hitting streak to 10 games, during which he has hit .421 with two home runs, three RBI and three runs scored. Flores has emerged as a mainstay in the Pirates' lineup, serving as the primary catcher against righties while often starting at first base against lefties.

  • Flores went 4-for-4 in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Brewers.

    All four knocks were singles, but it was still an impressive way for Flores to extend his hitting streak to nine games. During that span, the 25-year-old catcher is batting .441 (15-for-34) with a double and a homer but just two runs and two RBI as the Pittsburgh offense as a whole has struggled over the final weeks of the season -- Tuesday marked the sixth time in 13 September contests that the Pirates scored two runs or fewer.
