The Pirates got a huge performance from their star player during a 7-6 win over the Red Sox in Boston.
Bryan Reynolds crushed a pair of solo homers and went three-for-five at the plate.
The center fielder has three homers so far this season.
Jason Delay also launched a solo shot while Canaan Smith-Njigba drove in a pair of runs.
David Bednar shut the door on Boston in the ninth as Pittsburgh improved to 2-and-2.
Rafael Devers, Tristan Casas and Masataka Yoshida each homered for the Sox, who are now 2-and-2.
Same two teams will meet tonight at Fenway.
