Pirates Need Extra Innings to Top Reds, 8-6
The Pittsburgh Pirates picked up a win at Great American Ball Park, knocking off the Cincinnati Reds, 8-6, in 11 innings. Starting pitcher John Sneed played a key role in the triumph. Today's win puts Pittsburgh at 72-72, while Cincinnati falls to 94-50.

Adrian Mendoza came through with a big-time hit for Pittsburgh. The pinch hitter smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the 11th inning to give his team the lead, 8-6. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"John pitched like a son-of-a-gun," said Pittsburgh manager Matt Smith.
