Pittsburgh Downed, 5-4, by Cardinals
The St. Louis Cardinals picked up a win at PNC Park, knocking off the Pittsburgh Pirates, 5-4, in 12 innings. Starting pitcher Marcus Stroman played a key role in the triumph. The loss drops Pittsburgh to 5-8.

Keston Hiura came through with a big-time hit for St. Louis. The designated hitter smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the 12th inning to give his team the lead, 5-3. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"Very pleased with the effort on our side," said Hiura.
