PITTSBURGH (AP) — Rookie Colin Moran had four hits and three RBIs, and Starling Marte hit a bases-loaded triple to lead the streaking Pittsburgh Pirates over the Cincinnati Reds 14-3.
Moran’s two-run single with two outs in the third inning dropped in front of diving center fielder Billy Hamilton and put the Pirates ahead for good at 4-2.
Marte’s triple keyed a six-run sixth inning that included Corey Dickerson’s two-run double. Pittsburgh is off to a 6-1 start after trading Andrew McCutchen and Gerrit Cole.
