Pittsburgh Pirates’ Bryan Reynolds, right, is greeted by Josh Bell after hitting a two-run home run during the fourth inning of the team’s baseball game against the San Diego Padres, Friday, May 17, 2019, in San Diego. That’s how good Jordan Lyles was Friday night, when he dominated his former team for seven innings and helped the Pirates to a 5-3 victory against the San Diego Padres. Rookie Bryan Reynolds hit a go-ahead, two-run home run in the fourth. “You put yourself in a first-and-third situation, that’s when you need to score, that’s when you need to cash it in,” San Diego manager Andy Green said. San Diego rookie Ty France hit a two-run homer in the ninth, his second.
