Recap 9/5 | Pirates 6 Astros 3

The Bucs came away with a series win against the Astros tonight with a 6-3 victory. Kevin Correia had a very solid outing for the Pirates. He pitched six innings and allowed only one run on four hits. Jared Hughes had two solid innings out of the bullpen and Jason Grilli closed the game out.

The offense looked pretty good for the Pirates tonight as well. Gaby Sanchez had a three hit game and Alex Presley had a good game also, hitting an RBI triple. Clint Barmes reached base three times and had an RBI and Brock Holt picked up two more RBIs to add onto his impressive rookie showing.

After a disappointing loss Monday, these two wins to win the series against the Astros will hopefully set up a successful series against the Chicago Cubs this weekend.
