・Francisco Liriano gave up a home run to Yadier Molina in the 8th inning.

Molina hit well, but it looks the battery wanted the slider to the lower part of the strike zone.

Frankie surrendered only 2 home runs at PNC park last year. (9/15 Welington Castillo, 9/20 Todd Frazier)

・Pedro Alvarez walked THREE TIMES for first time since September 16, 2011.
