Pirates Snatch Late Win
Atlanta got a decent performance from pitcher Les Hampson, but it wasn't enough to beat the Pittsburgh Pirates. Pittsburgh won the PNC Park contest, 6-4. Hampson threw 6.0 innings of 4-hit ball for the losing team. Pittsburgh reliever Artie Kavanagh was the winner. His record is now 2-3. Chad Jackson took the loss. Dan Crawford was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 31 of 32 save opportunities.

Pittsburgh took a 6-4 lead on Chris Moody's 23rd double of the season. The 2-run double, which Moody hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Atlanta pitcher Chad Jackson visibly frustrated.

"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," Moody said.

With the win, Pittsburgh raised its record to 85-63.
