Gonzalez and Reynolds homer as Pirates hold off Rockies 8-6
Two blasts from Nick Gonzalez and Bryan Reynolds set the tone in Pittsburgh’s series-clinching win over Colorado.

The Pittsburgh Pirates topped the Colorado Rockies 8-6 on Sunday, using a pair of home runs to build a lead they never relinquished. Nick Gonzalez broke the game open with a two-run shot in the second, while Bryan Reynolds followed with a solo homer in the fifth, giving the Pirates enough cushion to survive a late Rockies rally. The win completes a series victory and keeps Pittsburgh within striking distance in the NL Central race.
