Fans saw a dandy of a game between the Atlanta Braves and Pittsburgh Pirates.

Atlanta ruined an otherwise fine effort from Marcelino Ramires by toppling Pittsburgh, 1-0. The Pittsburgh pitcher threw 6.2 innings of shutout ball. With this game in the books, Atlanta is 68-66, Pittsburgh 80-53.

Kenny Akers came through with a big-time hit for Atlanta. The second baseman smacked a solo home run in the top of the ninth inning to give his team the lead, 1-0. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"I like to keep things lively in the clubhouse," said Akers. "Believe me, it's much easier after a win."
