Josh Bell hit two home runs and Bryan Reynolds and Gregory Polanco homered as well as the Pirates blasted the Padres, 7-2. It was the third multi-homer game in the last fourteen days for Bell, and the second in two nights for the rookie Reynolds. The Pirates used bullpen pitchers for the game, with Steven Brault earning his first win with 3-and-a-third innings pitched and two runs allowed.
Here’s Joe Block with the recap.
