Cristian Guzman powered the Pittsburgh Pirates to a win over the St. Louis Cardinals. The final score was 8-4. The Pittsburgh shortstop was phenomenal. He stroked 2 extra-base hits, including 1 home run and 1 double. The winning pitcher was 29-year old right-handed pitcher Andy Shibilo. He tossed 123 pitches over 8.2 innings, allowing 4 runs on 9 hits. The third-place Pirates are 70-67.

Early in the game, catcher Carlos Ruiz had a 2-run double for Pittsburgh. It was his 38th double of the season and put the Pirates on top, 2-0.

"We just try to have good at-bats, whether we're winning, losing, or tied," said Ruiz.
