Oneil Cruz is back and blasting — his first game in 72 days ended with a jaw-dropping two-run homer that sealed a 4-1 Pirates win over the Tigers. Hitting 107.7 mph off a pitch, he sent it 422 feet, proving he’s still baseball’s most electrifying power threat. Before his injury, he was on pace for 35 homers and leading MLB in exit velocity. Manager Don Kelly and pitcher Braxton Ashcraft praised his immediate impact — both offensively and in center field. Cruz called the win more important than the hit, but his return has injected new energy into a struggling lineup. The Pirates are now riding a wave of confidence with their star back in the fold.
