Lance Lynn, on the other hand, didn't make it through six innings for the fifth consecutive start. In his 5 2/3 innings, the right-hander gave up six hits and seven runs, including homers to Jordy Mercer and Josh Harrison. Lynn only struck out three in the game, tying a season low, and has now allowed seven runs in back-to-back games.
MOMENTS THAT MATTERED
Mighty Mercer: With the game tied and two outs in the fourth inning, Andrew McCutchen singled to right field, one of his two hits.
