Sat Mar 22 2014 | 17:44 | Chris Dickerson goes 2-for-5, steals base |
Chris Dickerson had two hits and a stolen base as the Pirates' leadoff man on Saturday. |
Dickerson is hoping to fit into the Pirates' right field picture with his .355 average this spring. He's not going to hit for average in the regular season, but he does offer enough power, speed and defense to contribute as a part-timer. Still, it remains to be seen if the Pirates will carve out a role for him. |
