Pirates Beat The Rockies Thanks To Andrew McCutchen & Jared Triolo

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Andrew McCutchen and Jared Triolo hit two-run home runs an inning apart to lift the Pittsburgh Pirates to a 5-1 win over the Colorado Rockies on Saturday night.  Rockies center fielder Brenton Doyle spoiled the shutout with a ninth-inning home run.  McCutchen opened the scoring in the second with his 12th home run of the season, pulling it just inside the left-field foul pole.  Triolo hit his home run an inning later to make it 4-0. He added a triple in the fourth and scored on Bryan Reynolds’s double. The 2-for-4 game lifted his batting average above .200 for the first time this season, and he finished the day with a .205 average.  Doyle hit a two-out, solo home run. He entered with the third-highest OPS in baseball in August, behind Shohei Ohtani (1.221) and Brice Turang (1.190).  Rookie Mike Burrows led the Pirates pitching staff with four shutout innings of two-hit, five-strikeout ball. He was pulled after 57 pitches.
