Multi-HR Game for Van Slyke in 7-2 Win
The Pittsburgh Pirates bested the Atlanta Braves by a score of 7-2, with first baseman Andy Van Slyke getting the main credit. On the day, Van Slyke belted 2 home runs, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 2 for the Pirates. The second-place Pirates now have a win-loss record of 57-51.

It could have been a different outcome for Pittsburgh, had it not been for Carlos Baerga, the 25-year old second baseman . Baerga contributed a 3-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to put Pittsburgh up, 6-0.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Baerga told the Pittsburgh Bulletin. "It's as simple as that."
