The Pittsburgh Pirates ended their recent struggles with a 1-0 victory over the Cincinnati Reds, thanks to an outstanding pitching performance from Bailey Falter. The 26-year-old left-hander threw seven scoreless innings, allowing only four hits, and striking out five, securing his third win of the season. The game's only run came in the sixth inning when Bryan Reynolds hit a single to drive in Oneil Cruz from second base, breaking the scoreless tie.

This win was crucial for the Pirates, who have been looking to build some momentum in a challenging season. Falter's ability to keep the Reds batters at bay, especially after TJ Friedl's triple in the first inning, showcased his command and focus on the mound. With Falter's rising form, the Pirates will hope to find consistency in their pitching as the season progresses.
