PITTSBURGH — Bubba Chandler had one of his best starts and the Pirates' offense broke out in a 9-0 win over the Mets at PNC Park on Saturday night to snap a four-game skid.
Bottom 1st, 3-0 PIT: The Pirates (58-61) struck for three early runs against Robert Stock (0-2). With the bases loaded and one out, Nick Gonzales plated Jake Mangum on a groundout to the right of the pitcher's mound. Ronny Simon followed by keeping a ball fair inside the third base bag for a two-run double.
Bottom 3rd, 4-0 PIT: Simon bunted for a hit, stole second and raced home to score on Jacob Gonzalez's single to right field.
Bottom 4th, 8-0 PIT: The first six men up to plate all reached safely and the Pirates struck for four more runs. Mangum doubled home Henry Davis and scored on a wild pitch with the bases loaded. Later on, Gonzales plated a pair with a double to right.
Bottom 7th, 9-0 PIT: Brandon Lowe hit a solo home run off Mets catcher Luis Torrens, who was called upon in the seventh. The blast was Lowe's team-high 25th this season.
