Pittsburgh beat New York in a rain-soaked ballgame.

Mike Epstein led Pittsburgh to a win over New York. The final score was 9-7. The designated hitter collected 2 extra-base hits, including 1 home run and 1 double. Turk Wendell earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 1.1 innings. He upped his record to 1-2. Bill Mooneyham earned the save for Pittsburgh, his 1st of the year.

In the bottom of the fifth, with the game tied, New York allowed the Pirates to go up, 6-5, on a New York error.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said Pittsburgh manager Ted Pirates.

With the win, Pittsburgh improves its record to 10-13.
