Hanrahan allowed a hit in the ninth en route to his eighth save.
Andrew McCutchen hit a solo homer in the third and Garrett Jones had another one in the sixth. Ronny Cedeno tripled home Pedro Alvarez in the seventh to complete the scoring.
All three runs came off Jhoulys Chacin (3-2), who gave up six hits over seven innings.
