The Pittsburgh Pirates earned a win at PNC Park, knocking off the New York Mets, 9-2. On the bump for Pittsburgh was left-hander Chris Sale. He had a starring role in the triumph. The winning pitcher was Sale, now 13-5. He tossed 8 innings of 4-hit ball, while walking 2 and fanning 6. The first-place Pirates have won 4 in a row.

In the bottom of the third, Pittsburgh shortstop Dansby Swanson had a productive at-bat. With the bases loaded and one out, Swanson stroked a 2-run single to right-center. It made the score 4-1, Pittsburgh. For the game, he was 2-4 with 2 singles, while scoring 2 and driving in 2.

"It doesn't matter if you're 10 games over .500 or 10 games under, it feels good to win," Sale told the Pittsburgh Times.
