The left-hander Andrew Heaney made 7,1/3 of laundry in bleaching and Oneil Cruz denounced a home run to propel the pittsburgh hosts to a 1-0 victory against the Washington Nationals Thursday afternoon.
The pirates won their second consequence and won three victories in four games against the Nationals, who lost five of their last six. It was the first Pittsburgh bleaching of the season and the first time Washington was excluded.
Cruz’s first circuit stroke in career and the fourth of the season was a 442-foot explosion deeply for the center right on the starter of Washington, Trevor Williams (1-2), and followed his Grand Colem in his last At-Bat in the 6-1 victory on Wednesday.
Williams made five rounds, allowing the only race on three strokes and three balls on the only shots while removing five.
Heaney (1-1) continued the recent series of Pittsburgh with high starting throwing. The veteran abandoned five strokes, withdrew four outings and walked two out of 95 throws.
Heaney launched the receiver Joey Bart, who returned to the programming of the pirates after missing five consecutive games due to lower back pain.
Heaney’s jewel has marked the second consecutive outing of seven or more purposes by a pirate starter and the fourth consequence of at least six lanches launched.
Heaney walked Nasim Nasnez to open the eighth and was removed after the sacrifice of Alex Call with James Wood coming on the plate. The Ryan Borucki lift induced a wood floor.
The pirate third goal player, Ke’bryan Hayes, saved a race when he jumped an Smash by Amed Rosario on the line and launched in the first to end the Channel. Dennis Santana replaced Borucki with a withdrawal from the ninth and recorded the last two withdrawals to recover his second stop.
Nathaniel Lowe had a double among his two strokes while Washington gathered only five strokes in total.
The national benches coach Miguel Cairo succeeded Thursday’s match with manager Davey Martinez in the service of a suspension of a match. Martinez was suspended for a match and the Lepreer Jorge Lopez was suspended for three games after Lopex launched a quick bullet at Andrew McCutchen in Wednesday’s match, which prompted the two benches to get rid.
