Pirates 5, Marlins 4 (10)

Russell Martin’s pinch-hit single with two outs in the 10th inning lifted host Pittsburgh over Miami for its fifth straight win. Martin delivered his fourth game-ending hit at PNC Park this year for the N.L. Central leaders. The Pirates swept the three-game series and improved to 70-44, the best record in the majors. Josh Harrison opened the 10th with a single off Steve Ames and took second on Clint Barmes’ sacrifice bunt. After Jose Tabata bounced out and Starling Marte was intentionally walked, Martin batted for Jared Hughes and grounded a single down the left-field line.
