Malcom Nunez led Pittsburgh to a triumph over Houston. The final score was 9-6. The first baseman went 4 for 5, falling a triple shy of the cycle. He scored 2 runs and added 2 RBI. Jarlín García, now 2-0, picked up the win in relief. He allowed no runs on no hits in 2.1 innings. The loss makes Houston 57-51.

Endy Rodriguez didn't waste any time giving his team the lead. His first time up in the top of the first, he cranked a 3-run home run to put Pittsburgh on top, 3-0.

"We'll grab a cold beverage tonight and go after another win tomorrow," Rodriguez said.
