Pirates Fall to Murakami and Cardinals, 1-0
The St. Louis Cardinals picked up a win at PNC Park, knocking off the Pittsburgh Pirates, 1-0. Starting pitcher Tsugunosuke Murakami played a key role in the triumph. John Fisher closed it out for his 1st save. The Cardinals, at 38-36, sit in second place in the National League Central Division.

Murakami earned the win to move to 5-3. In his 8-inning performance, he scattered 3 hits, striking out 6 and walking 1. The left-hander allowed the Pirates few scoring opportunities.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Murakami told the St. Louis Observer.
