Bryan Reynolds continued his dominance of Cincinnati pitching with a tape-measure homer and an RBI triple in support of seven strong innings from Mitch Keller as the host Pittsburgh Pirates routed the Cincinnati Reds 9-1 on Friday night.

Henry Davis, who entered the series opener batting just .154 in 20 games, broke out with two homers and three runs from the ninth spot in the order. Marcell Ozuna added a two-run shot and Nick Gonzales went 3-for-4 to raise his average to .333 for the Pirates, who snapped a five-game losing streak.

Keller (3-1) allowed only three hits and one run in seven innings, striking out six and walking just one on a season-high 104 pitches. Justin Lawrence and Evan Sisk each tossed a scoreless inning in relief to seal the win.

The Reds — who entered the game with an MLB-leading 10-3 road record — were held to three hits, two of which were by TJ Friedl. The Cincinnati outfielder collected the first hit off Keller in the third and doubled to open the sixth and scored on Elly De La Cruz’s one-out groundout.

The game, which was delayed 91 minutes at the start by rain, was played in raw conditions with temperatures hovering around 40 for most of the night.

In the Pittsburgh first, Reynolds crushed a fastball from Cincinnati starter Brady Singer (2-2) an estimated 443 feet to the shrubs beyond the center field wall for his fourth homer of the season.

Reynolds has two home runs this season against Cincinnati pitching and 19 lifetime, the most against any opponent in his career.

Singer (2-2) was roughed up for four runs and seven hits over just 3 1/3 innings, striking out one while walking two.

Pittsburgh has taken three of the teams’ first four meetings this season.
