Pirates Win Opener in Extra Innings

The Pittsburgh Pirates won in extra innings on Opening Day, beating the Miami Marlins by a 6-5 score after a Jared Triolo RBI single in the top of the 12th inning.

The Pirates played comeback the entire game, and were able to do so due to their power production. After Mitch Keller gave up two runs in the bottom of the second, the Pirates got back in the game off a Bryan Reynolds two-run homer in the top of the third. Reynolds went 2-for-5, also adding a double.

Keller had a rough start, allowing four earned and five runs total in 5.
