CINCINNATI (AP) — Bryan Reynolds extended the longest active hitting streak in the major leagues to 22 games with a two-run home run and the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Cincinnati Reds 9-5. Reynolds’ streak is the longest by a Pirate since 2003 when Kenny Lofton hit safely in 26 straight games. The Reds’ Hunter Greene (5-3) issued a six-pitch walk to leadoff batter Andrew McCutchen and Reynolds followed with his home run to put the Pirates ahead 2-0. Jared Triolo’s two-run home run off Buck Farmer made the score 8-0 in the fifth. Pittsburgh’s Mitch Keller (9-4) allowed three earned runs on six hits in 5 2/3 innings.
