Stifled offense, 3 Nationals homers sink Pirates 6-2

The Pirates’ offense was bested against the veteran left-hander Corbin (10-13) throughout his outing for the Nationals. Corbin limited the Pirates (66-78) to a pair of runs in 6.2 innings and he struck out eight batters.
Bryan Reynolds drove in a run with a base hit up the middle in the second inning. The Pirates didn’t strike again against Corbin until Ji Hwan Bae drove in Miguel Andujar with a two-out double in the sixth.
