The Cincinnati Reds powered past the hometown Pittsburgh Pirates, 3-2, in the opener of the Wildcard Series at PNC Park today. Cincinnati starting pitcher Dave Rivera threw 5.2 innings of 4-hit ball, to lead the charge. The Reds now lead the series 1-0.

Cincinnati used a well-timed hit by Willie Lazcano to capture the win. The third baseman socked a 2-run double in the top of the second inning to put the Reds ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 5 at-bats, it was important.

Rivera called the win "a lesson in teamwork."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at PNC Park in Pittsburgh.
