The Pirates got to Doug Davis early, and hard. They put a five spot on the board in the fourth inning, knocking Davis from the game with his worst outing of the year.
Davis gave up all five runs on seven hits and four walks. The Diamondbacks were not able to put together enough of a comeback to win and dropped the game 6-4.
Adam LaRoche had three hits for the Pirates, who had ten as a team.
Mark Reynolds homered twice for the Diamondbacks, making a valiant effort to pull his team back into the game. He now has 13 on the year. He had three RBI’s in the game. Augie Ojeda and Conor Jackson each had two hits for the Diamondbacks as well.
Phil Dumatrait was the beneficiary of the outburst in the fourth inning. He gave up just two runs in 5.2 innings.
