Orlando Arcia hit his second two-run homer of the game in the 13th inning to give the visiting Milwaukee Brewers a 12-10 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Saturday.

Christian Yelich hit his 22nd homer and had an RBI triple, and Mike Moustakas hit a solo homer for the Brewers. Moustakas later left after getting hit by a pitch in the right hand.
Pittsburgh's Elias Diaz smacked a three-run double and added an RBI single, and pinch hitter Jose Osuna hit two-run homer.
Milwaukee's Brandon Woodruff had a rare rough start, pitching four-plus innings and allowing six runs and 10 hits, with five strikeouts and two walks.

In the second, Arcia made it 4-0 with his seventh homer after Eric Thames walked.
Moustakas led off the third with his 16th homer of the season -- and the Brewers' 100th -- to push the lead to 5-0.
Pittsburgh pulled within 5-4 in the bottom of the third on Melky Cabrera's RBI single and Diaz's three-run double.
In the fifth, Pittsburgh opened with three straight singles by Cabrera, Colin Moran and Diaz, with Cabrera scoring on Diaz's hit for a 5-5 tie, chasing Woodruff from the game.
Adam Frazier struck out against Junior Guerra, but Osuna blasted a 445-foot two-run shot to center for his first homer and a 7-5 Pirates lead.
In the sixth, Clay Holmes walked two of the first three Brewers. Francisco Liriano relieved and yielded Yelich's three-run homer that put the Brewers on top 8-7.
