Wild ninth inning headlines Pirates 6-4 win over Diamondbacks
Photo by Kelsey Grant/Getty ImagesThe Pittsburgh Pirates squeaked out a 6-4 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Wednesday, but it wasn’t a normal victory by any stretch.
Abnormality started in the middle innings. After Ben Gamel gave the Bucs a two-run lead in the third, Tucupita Marcano extended the lead in the fourth after scoring while Jason Delay was caught in a rundown.
Arizona climbed within a run in the bottom of the fourth after Ketel Marte and Christian Walker drove in a run each, but Greg Allen doubled in the sixth to drive in another for Pittsburgh.
Marcano singled in another a few hitters later.
