Pirates CF Hendrick scores 3 runs in Win
The Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Philadelphia Phillies, 9-8, at Veterans Stadium. George Hendrick was 2 for 3 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 3. The former first round draft pick was a menace to Philadelphia all day. Rich Gossage finished the game for Pittsburgh and earned his 29th save. The Pirates lead the National League East Division by 2½ games.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Lance Parrish? The Pittsburgh catcher had a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Pirates on top, 3-0. For the game, Parrish had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"We take it day by day here," said Hendrick, "and today was a good one for us."
