The winning run, and the only run, was scored by Pittsburgh in the bottom of the 2nd inning. The early run support proved sufficient for Reuss(14-10) and Pittsburgh. That was all the run support Reuss required. Dave Giusti earned the save with a perfect ninth, his 23rd save. The loss was charged to Jon Matlack(11-13). He was stingy with the baserunners, allowing just 2 hits and 2 walks in 7 innings.

The Pittsburgh ballclub's record now stands at 71-55. With the loss, New York NL has a record of 3-7 lately, 54-72 overall. |
