Pirates Capture Close Win
Wet weather did not postpone the Pittsburgh-Atlanta ballgame.

The Pittsburgh Pirates downed the Atlanta Braves, 5-4, at PNC Park. Dansby Swanson led the way, going 3-for-3 for Pittsburgh. At 37-38, the Pirates claim last place in the NL Central Division.

Pittsburgh got a clutch hit from Anthony Rizzo. The first baseman launched a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a kill shot.

"I don't lose sleep over a loss," said Rizzo. "But I have better dreams after a win."
