All of Jimenez's trouble came with two outs. After allowing a walk to John Jaso and a single to Andrew McCutchen, he got Matt Joyce to ground out and Jason Rogers to pop out. But Josh Harrison hit a triple on a soft fly ball into left field, scoring Jaso and McCutchen. Jake Goebbert followed with a single to right, scoring Harrison.
