Pirates beat Rockies 5-1 with 2-run home runs from McCutchen and Triolo
Rockies center fielder Brenton Doyle spoiled the shutout with a ninth-inning home run.
McCutchen opened the scoring in the second with his 12th home run of the season, pulling it just inside the left-field foul pole.
Triolo hit his home run an inning later to make it 4-0. He added a triple in the fourth and scored on Bryan Reynolds's double. The 2-for-4 game lifted his batting average above .200 for the first time this season, and he finished the day with a .205 average.
Doyle hit a two-out, solo home run. He entered with the third-highest OPS in baseball in August, behind Shohei Ohtani (1.221) and Brice Turang (1.190).
Rookie Mike Burrows led the Pirates pitching staff with four shutout innings of two-hit, five-strikeout ball. He was pulled after 57 pitches.
Burrows underwent Tommy John surgery in April 2023, and has pitched more innings (77 2/3) this season than any in his career since he was drafted out of high school in the 11th round in 2018.
Carmen Mlodzinski (3-7) got the win with two shutout innings in relief of Burrows.
Colorado's Kyle Freeland (3-13) allowed five runs and seven hits over five innings. He struck out six.
