Pirates Clip Astros, 6-5
|
Alvaro Cardenas had a good game, but he could not keep the Houston Astros from falling, 6-5, to the Pittsburgh Pirates at Minute Maid Park. The Houston first baseman went 2 for 4 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once in the loss. Pittsburgh has now won 3 in a row.
The outcome might have been different for Pittsburgh, had it not been for Ricky Ibarra, the 25-year old first baseman . Ibarra stroked a bases-clearing double in the top of the ninth inning to put Pittsburgh up, 6-4. For the game, he was 2 for 5, including 1 double and 1 single.
"Win or lose, we pick each other up in this clubhouse," Ibarra told the Pittsburgh Citizen.
