Janish tallies three hits, homers vs. Bucs

"There's only two pitches I'd like to have back, the two homers," Gonzalez said. "Everything else was good. Couple hits that I felt good with my pitches."

Pirates shortstop Jordy Mercer knocked an RBI single to center in the third inning, increasing the Bucs' lead to 3-0. The O's chipped away in the third inning, pulling within one run on a Joey Rickard RBI double and a run-scoring groundout by Dariel Alvarez.

Polanco extended the Pirates' lead in the fourth inning, swatting his first Spring Training homer to right-center field off Gonzalez.
