Pirate batters powered out 10 hits in the game and scored in every inning except the fourth, including three runs in both the second and third.
Davis, Josh Dykes and John Gillis all had 2-for-3 days at the plate, with Davis notching a double and a triple while Dykes and Gillis both had a single and a double.
