SAN FRANCISCO — Rookie Patrick Bailey had four RBIs on his 24th birthday, boosting the San Francisco Giants to a 14-4 rout of Pittsburgh that dropped the Pirates under .500 for the first time since the opening weekend of the season. Pittsburgh (26-27) has lost 19 of 25 games after a 20-8 start. The Pirates' only other time under .500 was at 1-2. Bailey, a catcher who debuted on May 19, was playing his ninth major league game. After hitting a go-ahead, two-run double against 43-year-old Rich Hill in a five-run second inning, he added a two-run homer in an eight-run seventh.
