Newly acquired Alfonso Rivas belted a three-run homer and the visiting Pittsburgh Pirates went deep three more times to pound out an 8-4 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday night.
Rivas, acquired in the deadline deal that sent pitcher Rich Hill and designated hitter Ji Man Choi to the San Diego Padres, finished a double short of the cycle while playing in his second game with the Pirates.
The Pirates opened the sixth with back-to-back solo homers off Bryse Wilson by Josh Palacios, his third, and Bryan Reynolds, his 13th, to make it 8-3.Yerry De Los Santos got his first career win with a scoreless fifth inning in relief of rookie starter Quinn Priester. The Pirates converted a lucky bounce into their first-inning runs. Jack Suwinski walked with two outs and Davis followed with an apparent inning-ending bouncer up the middle, but the ball ricocheted off second base, putting runners on the corners. Rivas then lined a 3-2 pitch 403 feet to left-center for his first home run of the season.
Davis capped a three-run second with his fifth homer to put the Pirates up 6-2. Reynolds' RBI double accounted for the first run of the inning.
