Pirates 4, Padres 3
SAN DIEGO — Garrett Jones and Chris Snyder each hit a two-run homer in the first inning and the Pirates snapped a nine-game losing streak to the Padres dating to 2009. San Diego had the potential tying run on third with two outs in the ninth but Will Venable hit into a force. The Padres wore camouflage jerseys to honor the military.
