Reds Lose, 6-2, at PNC Park
Pittsburgh played host to Cincinnati at the friendly confines of PNC Park.

The Cincinnati Reds went down to defeat to Steven Matz and his Pittsburgh teammates. The final score was 6-2 in favor of the Pirates. Matz, now 8-8, was the winner. In 7.2 innings, he gave up 5 hits, while striking out 7, walking 2, and allowing 2 earned runs.

The Pirates got an important contribution from third baseman Jake Lamb, who in the bottom of the fourth stroked a 1-0 slider into right-center for a 2-run double. It was his 21st double of the season and put the Pirates ahead, 2-1.

"Good baseball players make you a smarter manager," said Pittsburgh manager Corey Wehr.

Pittsburgh is now 69-93.
