Pirates Drop Braves, 4-3
The Pirates grabbed a win, 4-3, at Turner Field, overcoming a fine effort from Atlanta pitcher Casey Jones. Jones went 8.2 innings and allowed 3 runs. The first-place Pirates have won 4 in a row.

Pittsburgh used the timely hitting of David Contreras to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the tenth inning to put the Pirates on top, 4-3. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

In postgame comments to the Pittsburgh Gazette, Contreras said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
