Vanessa and Cole Tucker have enjoyed sharing adorable photos of their growing relationship on social media. They were seen holding hands in November 2020, which fuelled suspicions of romance. Hudgens and Tucker officialized their relationship on Instagram in early 2021.

How did Tucker's team fare on Opening Day?

The Pirates started their 2022 season with many things going wrong. At Busch Stadium, the Pirates were defeated 9-0 by the St. Louis Cardinals. Veteran pitcher Adam Wainwright extended his scoreless streak against the Pirates to 32 innings, pitching six innings against the Bucs.

In his first start of the season, Pittsburgh's J.T. Brubaker struggled, allowing four runs on four hits in just three innings. Yoshi Tsutsugo went 2-for-3 with two singles and a walk.

Catcher Roberto Perez went 0-for-2 with a walk. In addition to losing the game, the Pirates lost two players to injury: third baseman Ke'Bryan Hayes suffered a cramp in his left thumb, and right-hander Duane Underwood Jr. suffered hamstring pain in his left leg. Hayess' injury came just hours after signing an eight-year contract extension with the team.

The Pirates will return to Busch Stadium on Saturday for game two against the Cardinals.
