PITTSBURGH — Lorenzo Cain and Luis Urias hit two-run doubles, Adrian Houser pitched five scoreless innings and the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Pittsburgh 7-3 on Wednesday night.

Cain’s hit in the fourth inning pushed the Brewers’ lead to 3-0. Urias’ double came during a three-run sixth that made it 6-0.

Pirates rookie Rodolfo Castro became the first player in major league history to have his first five hits all be home runs after hitting two more long balls on Wednesday. Castro surpassed the mark set by Trevor Story in 2016 with the Colorado Rockies.

Houser (7-5) allowed two hits while striking out two and walking one. He is 4-0 in his last 11 starts and the Brewers have won each of his last eight outings.

Avisail Garcia had three hits for the NL Central-leading Brewers, who have won four of five. Omar Narvaez and Tyrone Taylor added two hits each.

Pirates rookie Max Kranick (1-2) was tagged for six runs and 10 hits in five-plus inning in his fourth major league start. Kranick pitched five perfect innings against St. Louis on June 27 in his debut but has since given up 13 runs in 11 innings.

Rookie Ke’Bryan Hayes had two of the Pirates’ six hits.

Garcia opened the scoring with an RBI single in the first and Cain’s double to the wall in right-center two innings later made it 3-0. Following Urias’ double in the sixth, Kolten Wong hit a sacrifice fly.

Taylor’s RBI single in the seventh pushed Milwaukee’s lead to 7-0.
