周六晚NBA季后赛森林狼大胜火箭，将系列赛比分扳成1-2，同时这场胜利也是森林狼时隔14年之久再次在季后赛中赢球。请看本报昨日的报道：

Jimmy Butler hit four 3-pointers among his 28 points and Karl-Anthony Towns snapped back from a bad start to the series with 18 points and 16 rebounds, leading the Minnesota Timberwolves past the Houston Rockets 121-105 in Game 3 Saturday night for their first postseason victory in 14 years.

“This city deserves being in the playoffs a little bit longer,” Butler said.

Jeff Teague scored 23 points and Andrew Wiggins pitched in 20 points with another four 3-pointers, helping the Timberwolves match the NBA’s best 3-point shooting team with 15 makes apiece from long range. Minnesota took 27; Houston launched 41.

报道中的pitch in就是“贡献、参与”的意思。例如：

Begin your new position with a can-do attitude and a desire to pitch in where needed.

在新工作中你要拿出干劲、在需要你的时候积极贡献力量。
