Castro Impresses in Washington Loss
The Pittsburgh Pirates weathered an outstanding game by Washington designated hitter German Castro to topple the Nationals, 12-10. Castro was 3-5 with 2 home runs. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. Ian Roth picked up the win in relief. Alvin Janosky took the loss for Washington. John Souza got credit for the save for Pittsburgh. It was his 7th of the year.

The Pirates beat the Nationals in part due to timely hitting. Case in point: the two-out single Jared Griesbach produced in the top of the ninth. Batting against Alvin Janosky, Griesbach gave his team the lead, 10-9, when he hit a run-scoring single.

Washington manager Noah Fourie expressed his frustration after the game: "That many runs and it still wasn't enough?"

The Pirates, now 22-10, have been playing some good baseball.
