Rinku and Dinesh Debut

Okay, this isn't exactly crucial stuff in light of recent developments, but in a bit of good news, the hard-throwing brothers pitchers from India/Pittsburgh Pirates prospects both made an appearance for the team's Gulf Coast League affiliate today.

Each went an inning in relief for the Bradenton Pirates. Rinku gave up one run and two hits, while Dinesh pitched a 1-2-3 inning with a K.

Update: apparently, I think all Indian people are brothers. Apologies.
