Simon went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 6-5 win over the Royals.
Simon opened the scoring with his first career major-league home run in the second inning. The 26-year-old has been solid in a small sample this season, hitting .313 with four extra-base hits, four RBI, nine runs scored and seven steals across just 52 plate appearances with the Pirates.
