Pittsburgh's Starling Marte hit a grand slam off new Reds closer J.J. Hoover with two outs in the eighth inning that proved to be the decisive blow in a 6-5 loss. Hoover had pitched a perfect inning against Philadelphia on Opening Day to close out a 6-2 victory in a non-save situation, but he was denied the opportunity at a four-out save Friday when he left a slider too far up in the zone.
