The Pirates offense was AWOL again, as the Bucs managed just six hits while the Mets scored seven times in the final three innings to turn a tight game into a 7-0 New York rout.

Andrew McCutchen and Lyle Overbay each had three hits, and Charlie Morton continued his early season excellence as the Pirates won their second-straight over the Philadelphia Phillies 6-3 Saturday night at PNC Park.
