Pittsburgh Pirates starter Sam Richardson pitched his team past the Kansas City Royals, 6-1. Pittsburgh improves to 72-48 with the win. They lead their division by 17 games.

Pittsburgh used the timely hitting of Hugo Zacarias to capture the win. The right fielder stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Pirates on top, 4-1. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but he made it count.

"We're one win closer to our goal," Richardson said in postgame remarks.
