The Pittsburgh Pirates had scored a combined total of 10 runs in their previous five games, causing manager Don Kelly to repeatedly call their inability to drive in runners the team’s Achilles’ heel.

Perhaps they were saving it up for the home finale.

Spurred by Jared Triolo and Joey Bart, who combined for eight hits and six RBIs, the Pirates rolled to an 11-0 win over the Athletics on Sunday afternoon before 16,107 at PNC Park. Triolo and Bart went 4 for 4 with a home run and a double each.

The Pirates completed their MLB-best 19th shutout victory of the season — and second consecutive, following a 2-0 win Saturday night — with 15 of the shutouts coming at PNC Park.

The Pirates (67-89) finished with a 44-37 home record. They drew a total home attendance of 1,525,025 this season, an average of 18,828 per game. That’s down from 1,720,361 (21,239 per game) in 2024, for an average decrease of 2,411 per game.

It marked the seventh time this season that the Pirates scored 10 or more runs. They are off Monday, then finish the season with a six-game road trip to Cincinnati and Atlanta.

The Pirates got another strong tandem pitching performance, as Mike Burrows and Carmen Mlodzinski combined for six strikeouts without a walk over seven scoreless innings. Yohan Ramirez pitched the eighth.

With two outs in the first, Bryan Reynolds singled to center, advanced to second when Spencer Horwitz drew a walk and scored on Andrew McCutchen’s single to right for a 1-0 lead. With runners on first and third, Nick Gonzales doubled to right to drive in Horwitz to make it 2-0.

The Pirates doubled their lead in the second, when Nick Yorke reached on a forceout and Triolo sent Mitch Spence’s 0-1 sinker 402 feet to left-center for his seventh home run.

They continued their offensive outburst in the fourth. Bart singled, Yorke doubled and Oneil Cruz drove in both with a single to right that was misplayed for an error by Carlos Cortes to give the Pirates a 6-0 lead. Triolo singled to center to score Cruz for a seven-run advantage.

The Pirates reached double digits in the fifth, when McCutchen drew a leadoff walk, Jack Suwinski hit a book-rule double to the North Side Notch and Bart hit a three-run bomb off Osvaldo Bido that had a 108.6-mph exit velocity and traveled 420 feet to left to make it 10-0.

In the eighth, Triolo doubled to right off Scott McGough, advanced to third on Alexander Canario’s single and scored on a Horwitz groundout to make it 11-0.
