Horwitz went 0-for-2 on Saturday against the Phillies.

Horwitz was sidelined for the first seven weeks of the regular season and made his Pirates debut Saturday night. While he occupied the fifth spot in the order, the lefty-hitting Horwitz was pulled for a pinch hitter when lefty Matt Strahm took the mound. While Horwitz could have been pulled as he continues to build up stamina, it's possible this is an early sign that he'll be operating in a platoon at first base.
