Pirates Earn Late Win
Atlanta first baseman Francisco Galdamez had a terrific game, but it still wasn't enough to get his team a win. Galdamez went 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 2 and driving in 2, even as Pittsburgh beat the Braves, 7-6. Pittsburgh reliever Corbett Healy picked up the win, upping his record to 2-4. Derrek Romeo took the loss. The Pirates go to 82-72, putting them second in the National League East Division.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the ninth inning, when Pittsburgh second baseman Mark Tallman, facing Jaime Cotton, had a run-scoring sacrifice fly. It gave the Pirates the 7-6 win.

"The crowd was boisterous tonight," said Tallman.
