Bryan Reynolds Has a 2-Out, 2-Run Triple in the 8th in the Pirates’ 3-2 over the Reds
PNC PARK IN PITTSBURGH, AUG 9 – Bryan Reynolds hit his third triple of the season, driving in two runs to break a 2-1 deficit and secure the Pirates' 3-2 win over the Reds.
On August 8, 2025, the Pittsburgh Pirates rallied to defeat the Cincinnati Reds 3-2 at PNC Park in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
The Pirates rallied after the Reds' initial lead, despite rookie Chase Burns delivering six innings with 10 strikeouts and giving up just one run, which scored on consecutive extra-base hits from Bryan Reynolds and Oneil Cruz.
Cincinnati led 2-1 entering the eighth, boosted by Tyler Stephenson's RBI double and loading the bases earlier, but failed to score further after Jake Fraley grounded into a double play.
With two outs in the eighth inning, Bryan Reynolds delivered a triple that drove in two runs off reliever Tony Santillan, sparking the Pirates' comeback and allowing Kyle Nicolas and Dennis Santana to close out the victory.
The Reds dropped their second straight game in the four-game set, worsening their record at PNC Park to 1-4 in 2025 and increasing the pressure to secure a victory on August 9 to avoid losing the series.
