Pirates vs Diamondbacks

The Pittsburgh Pirates secured a 4-2 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks, thanks to home runs from Bryan Reynolds and Joey Bart, which helped them tie the series after a rain delay disrupted the game. Reynolds hit a two-run shot in the sixth inning, while Bart initiated scoring with a solo homer in the second. The win for the Pirates marked their fourth in six games, ending the Diamondbacks' four-game winning streak. Earlier in the series, the Diamondbacks had made headlines by setting a new MLB record for the first four batters, with Josh Bell and Ketel Marte each hitting two home runs in a wild 9-8 win. Bell, who was traded to the Diamondbacks shortly before the deadline, made an immediate impact with a pair of homers in his debut. The Diamondbacks remain in strong contention for the NL wild-card spot despite the setback in Game 2 of the series.
