Dennis goes 3-for-4, Leads Pirates to Win
The skies opened up and the rain fell at Citi Field.

The Pittsburgh Pirates dealt the New York Mets a 6-4 loss at Citi Field. Ed Dennis was the star on offense. He went 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 3 times and drove in 3. The Mets, now 5-12, continue their inauspicious start.

With Pittsburgh leading 3-2 in the top of the fifth, Dennis hit a fastball from Jesús García for a 3-run home run. It was his 1st home run of the season and put the Pirates ahead, 6-2.

"I'm a bit of a clubhouse prankster," said Dennis. "But it's all business when we're on the field."
