Victor Gonzalez pitched well, but the Pittsburgh Pirates still fell short, losing, 4-1, to the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park. Bill Whittaker picked up the save, his 3rd. The Tigers have a winning streak of 5 games.

The Pirates had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Tigers going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the fan favorite Chris Ward came to the plate. Ward hit a 2-run home run on a 1-1 cutter from Pittsburgh hurler Sid Massagli. It was Ward's 10th home run of the year.

"The fans pay the tickets and help us do what we do, so we like to put on a show for them," Ward told the Detroit Herald.
