With one out in the fourth, Tucupita Marcano walked and Bae doubled to center. Palacios, with his first hit as a Pirate, drove in both with a single to left for a 3-1 lead.
Austin Hedges reached on Rojas' fielding error at third. Andrew McCutchen walked to load the bases, and Reynolds walked to force in a run. Suwinski doubled to right to drive in Hedges and McCutchen. An out later, Reynolds and Suwinski scored on Hayes' single up the middle to make it 8-1.
In the fifth, Bae and McCutchen singled before Reynolds hit his sixth homer, his first since April 7, to up the margin to 11-1.
Rojas drove in two in the seventh to make it 11-3 with a two-run double to right. Pittsburgh reliever Duane Underwood Jr. then left because of an arm injury.
