The Pittsburgh Pirates looked to end the weekend on a winning note, but thanks to a poor outing by reliever Manny Banuelos, the Cincinnati Reds walked out of PNC Park with a 9-5 win and the series.
The Bucs garnered the upper hand in the first as Ben Gamel evened the scoring on a single to center. Rodolfo Castro then continued his hot streak at the plate with double that gave Pittsburgh a temporary lead.
That lead was short-lived as the Reds reclaimed the lead in the third thanks to a two-run home run by Mike Moustakas.
