Pirates Rally to Win
|
The Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the New York Mets, 6-4, in National League action at Citi Field. Kurt Villarreal pulled his weight. The 8-year veteran went 3 for 4 with 3 singles and a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Kyle Nichols picked up the win in relief. His record improves to 5-1. Brandon Chopp suffered the loss. Willie Lopez got the save, his 21st in 27 chances.
Raul Rodriguez came through with a big-time hit for Pittsburgh. The center fielder smacked a solo home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 5-4. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.
"We'll hit the hot tub in good spirits tonight," said Villarreal.
The first-place Pirates, at 64-54, now lead their division by 5½ games.
