MILWAUKEE, Aug. 24 (UPI) -- Craig Wilson belted a three-run homer and matched a career high with four RBI Saturday night as the Pittsburgh Pirates collected a season-high nine doubles en route to a 17-10 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers.
Pittsburgh improved to 14-4 against Milwaukee this season, including an 8-1 mark at Miller Park.
Brian Giles had three hits and three RBI and Armando Rios slugged his first home run of the season for the Pirates.
Kip Wells (12-11) pitched well enough to become Pittsburgh's first 12-game winner since 1999. The righthander allowed three runs and nine hits in six innings with a strikeout and a walk.
Wilson connected starter Jose Cabrera (5-10) with two out in the third to give the Pirates a 7-2 lead. They blew open the game with a seven-run sixth.
Cabrera was torched for 11 runs -- the most by a Brewers' pitcher since the team moved to the National League -- and 11 hits in 5 1/3 innings.
Milwaukee has lost nine of its last 11 games.
