Phillies Fall to Pirates, 6-2
Pittsburgh Pirates starter Chris Niewinski pitched a strong game against the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park, leading the Pirates to victory, 6-2. Niewinski went 6 innings to notch the win. He scattered 9 hits, walked 1, and struck out 4. His record improves to 12-8. Jo Sealy finished to wrap up his 4th save.

Pittsburgh used a clutch hit from Nate D'Acquisto to get the win. The third baseman drilled a 3-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Pirates ahead, 6-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a doozy.

"You never take a win for granted in this league," said Niewinski.

Pittsburgh is second in the National League East Division with a record of 72-68.
