Dovydas Neverauskas made his big league debut for the Pirates on Monday and pitched two innings of relief with two hits and one run allowed and a strikeout.
The 24-year-old righthander's debut was particularly notable because he was born and raised in Lithuania, a decidedly non-traditional baseball country. With the outing Neverauskas became the first player who grew up in Lithuania to play in the majors.
