Pirates unravel in 7th inning in 6-4 loss to Giants

A pair of defensive miscues paved the way for a three-run seventh inning for the San Francisco Giants, who defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates 6-4 at PNC Park on Friday night.

After Wilmer Flores began the seventh with a double and J.D. Davis later drew a walk, both runners advanced 90 feet on an Austin Hedges passed ball. Patrick Bailey singled to right field, plating a run and tying the game 4-4. After Henry Davis misplayed the base hit, the Giants were able to score another run and take the lead.
