In a game that featured a ninth inning brawl and eight ejections, the Pirates snapped a nine game losing streak with an 11-4 win over the rival Reds last night in Cincinnati. The Reds were unhappy that Keonte Kela was pitching “high and inside” and Reds relief pitcher Amir Garrett charged the Pirates dugout from the mound, which upset the Buccos.
Corey Dickerson led the offense going 3 for 4 with five rbis. Joe Musgrove got the win.
