Cole pitches into 5th inning in Pirates' loss to Twins (Yahoo Sports)

Gerrit Cole pitched into the fifth inning in Pittsburgh's 6-4 loss to the Minnesota Twins on Monday and likely will need one more start in Florida before joining the Pirates' rotation. Cole worked 4 2-3 innings and gave up two runs and eight hits. It was only the second Grapefruit League outing for Cole, who was slowed in the first week of camp by a sore ribcage.
