CJ Abrams homered twice, Patrick Corbin pitched into the seventh inning and the Washington Nationals beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 6-2 on Monday night.
Abrams hit a two-run shot to right-center against Andre Jackson in the third inning. He drove a fastball from Cody Bolton over the 21-foot-high Clemente Wall in right in the seventh for his first career multihomer game.
Bryan Reynolds had an RBI single for Pittsburgh, which lost for the third time in four games. Ji Hwan Bae added an RBI double. Jared Triolo had a hit and made a couple of solid plays defensively in his first major league start at first base. Abrams, who sat out Sunday’s loss to the Dodgers to rest a knee he tweaked while sliding into second base on Saturday, deposited an 86 mph changeup from Jackson onto the concourse with two outs in the third to put the Nationals in front 2-0.
He allowed three runs or less in four straight starts between Aug. 4-24 but took the mound at PNC Park having been pounded recently by Toronto and the New York Mets .
