With Late Score, Pirates Beat Braves
The Pittsburgh Pirates racked up a win at PNC Park, bumping off the Atlanta Braves, 2-1, in 15 innings. Jon Niese, who started for Pittsburgh, pitched effectively for his team. The Pirates, at 21-15, have now won 4 straight.

The Pirates got a clutch hit from catcher Carlos Ruiz. In the bottom of the 15th, he hit a run-scoring single to center, to win the game for the Pirates.

"I was a little disappointed," said Atlanta manager Brandon R. "We could've and should've scored more runs."
