Pirates Come Back Late to Top Spiders
The Pittsburgh Pirates downed the Cleveland Spiders, 7-6, at Three Rivers Stadium. The Pirates were led by Edgardo Alfonzo, who captured player of the game honors. He was 3 for 4 with a double and 2 singles. He drove in 3 runs. Kevin Appier was the winning pitcher. Over 8 innings, he allowed 6 runs on 7 hits, with 5 walks and 1 strikeout. Pittsburgh now owns a record of 33-23.

A crucial at-bat came with a runner on 2nd and one out in the bottom of the eighth inning. That's when right fielder Tony Gwynn, who finished 4th in the UL in on-base percentage with .372 in 1983, drew a walk. The Pirates went on to win.

"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said Gwynn.
