Behind the bravura of center fielder Lance Blankenship, the Pittsburgh Pirates topped the Atlanta Braves by the score of 11-3. Blankenship went 3-5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 3 times and driving in 2 for the Pirates. The Pirates move to 58-51 with the win, while the Braves drop to 53-56.

Pittsburgh needed the clutch hitting of Carlos Baerga to notch the win. The second baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the third inning to put the Pirates on top, 2-1. For the game, Baerga had 1 home run and 1 single in 3 at-bats.

"We played a good game and came out on top," said Blankenship.
