Baty Hits 2 home runs in Pirates Win
Brett Baty was a major contributor to the 3-1 Pittsburgh win over Texas. The Pirates first baseman was 3-4 with 2 home runs and was hit by a pitch. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Mitch White, 2-6, earned the win in relief. He allowed no runs on no hits in 1.1 innings. The triumph makes Pittsburgh 26-49.

Baty had a game-changing home run in the top of the ninth. On a 1-2 fastball from Pete Fairbanks, he banged a 2-run home run to right-center, giving the Pirates a 3-1 lead. It was the 10th home run of the year for Baty.

Afterward, Pirates manager Alex Clark was ebullient. "That was a fun game to coach," he told a group of reporters, adding, "I hope it was just as fun to watch."
