Pirates Turn Back St. Louis, 4-2
St. Louis got a terrific performance from left fielder Jose Alberto Martinez, but it wasn't enough to beat the Pittsburgh Pirates. Pittsburgh won the Busch Stadium contest, 4-2. Martinez was the player of the game despite being on the losing side. He went 4-4 with a home run and 3 singles. Jonathan Loaisiga got the win, improving to 1-3. He worked 5 innings, giving up 2 runs on 7 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 1. Nick Kingham earned his 1st save in 1 chances.

The Pirates got an important contribution from pinch hitter LaMonte Wade, who in the top of the sixth punched a 3-1 fastball into right for a 2-run single. It was his 5th hit of the season and put the Pirates ahead, 4-2.

"We put a lot of pressure on ourselves," Wade told a Pittsburgh Gazette reporter. "Sometimes we need just to relax."

Pittsburgh now has a 3-game win streak.
