Diamondbacks rally to beat Pirates 9-5

Pittsburgh starter Joe Musgrove worked out of a couple of jams to help his team build a five-run lead over Arizona after six innings. When he opened the seventh by intentionally plunking Chris Owings, it not only put a runner on, it sparked the Diamondbacks to a massive rally.

Jake Lamb hit a tying three run homer in the seventh inning and the Diamondbacks scored nine runs after Musgrove hit Owings to rally past the Pirates 9-5 on Monday night. “It is nothing more than protecting your teammates,” Musgrove said. “That is baseball.”
