Pirates Triumphant, 5-3, at Busch Stadium
In the 5-3 Pittsburgh win over St. Louis, the impact of Jack Suwinski was substantial. Suwinski, who is tied for 7th in the NL in home runs with 33, was 3 for 3 with 3 singles and a walk. Pittsburgh reliever Jared Jones was the winner. His record is now 5-12. The losing pitcher was Taj Bradley. Andrew Kittredge earned the save for Pittsburgh, his 18th.

Bryan De La Cruz dealt the Cardinals a blow in the top of the fourth. Batting with the bases loaded and Pittsburgh leading 2-0, De La Cruz hit a 1-1 fastball for a 2-run single.

De La Cruz said his team "played with a purpose."

At 67-82, the Pirates are currently 4th in the National League Central Division.
