The Dodgers beat the Pirates, 6-4, on Wednesday night, winning the third game of the series behind a clutch bullpen performance and a power surge from J.D. Martinez and David Peralta.
Bobby Miller allowed a solo home run to Bryan Reynolds in the first inning, but he struck out the side. He found off-speed stuff command in the second. With a ten-pitch third, he brought down his pitch count to a manageable level. In the fourth, Miller allowed a three-run homer on a hanging slider, but he retired the next three. Miller was the first Dodger starter in July to go five innings.
