PITTSBURGH (AP) — Bryan Reynolds, Brandon Lowe, and Nick Yorke each had two RBIs to lift the Pittsburgh Pirates over the Boston Red Sox 8-3 after a 2 1/2-hour rain delay on Sunday.
The tarp came out after the sixth inning at 3:35 p.m. local time, and play resumed at 6:05.
The Pirates won their franchise-best eighth consecutive home series against an AL opponent, a streak extending back to a three-game sweep of Detroit from July 21-23, 2025.
Reynolds got Pittsburgh on the board first with an RBI double in the first, and scored when Lowe added a single.
Reynolds singled in a run to spark the Pirates' five-run third. Lowe added his second RBI single and Yorke hit a two-run single before Henry Davis hit a sacrifice fly that made it 7-0.
Lake Bachar worked three innings as the opener, surrendering two hits and fanning four. Kirby Yates (1-5) picked up his first win after striking out two in a scoreless seventh.
Patrick Sandoval (1-2) had six strikeout in the loss. He allowed seven runs and nine hits across four innings.
The Red Sox started a rally in the fifth on Connor Wong's three-run homer, but the delay halted any momentum towards a 29th comeback win.
