First baseman Adam Laroche had 4 hits and 2 RBI as the Pittsburgh Pirates
defeated the Philadelphia Phillies by a score of 5 to 2 at PNC Park.
 
The game started off with Pittsburgh taking the lead in the first as they
scored 2 runs on 3 base hits.  Pittsburgh had 14 hits overall, while
Philadelphia had 10.  
 
Paul Maholm(6-10) got credit for the victory, pitching 8 innings and allowing
2 runs. Franquelis Osoria earned the save, his 1st.  The loss was charged to
Jamie Moyer(9-11).  
 
With this win, Pittsburgh has a 50-71 record.  They have been 3-7 lately.
Philadelphia will hope that this loss is only a 'blip' on their recent 8-2
run - and not a start of a new trend.
