Proper way to pipe into awk command

What is the proper way to run two commands together?

For example, in the below I would like run a command in bold then pipe that output to awk to re-format it. Thank you Smilie.

Code:
bedtools nuc -fi /home/cmccabe/Desktop/bed/hg19.fa -bed /home/cmccabe/Desktop/bed/xgen_baits.bed > /home/cmccabe/Desktop/bed/xgen_GC_baits.bed | awk 'NR>1 {print $1, $2, $3, $4, $6, $8}' OFS="\t" xgen_GC_baits.bed > GC.bed

GVFS-TRASH(1)							   User Commands						     GVFS-TRASH(1)

NAME
gvfs-trash - Move files or directories to the trash SYNOPSIS
gvfs-trash [OPTION...] [LOCATION...] DESCRIPTION
gvfs-trash sends files or directories to the "Trashcan". This can be a different folder depending on where the file is located, and not all file systems support this concept. In the common case that the file lives inside a users home directory, the trash folder is $XDG_DATA_HOME/Trash. Note that moving files to the trash does not free up space on the file system until the "Trashcan" is emptied. If you are interested in deleting a file irreversibly, see gvfs-rm. Inspecting and emptying the "Trashcan" is normally supported by graphical file managers such as nautilus, but you can also see the trash with the command gvfs-ls trash://. OPTIONS
The following options are understood: -h, --help Prints a short help text and exits. -f, --force Ignore nonexistent and non-deletable files. --empty Empty the trash. EXIT STATUS
On success 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise. SEE ALSO
