|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pirates | 0 | 0 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 4 | 0 | 9 | 15 | 1 |

The Pirates (3-3) brought their record back to .500 with a win against Florida (3-3).
Xavier Nady and Nate McLouth both drove in a pair of runs, Nady’s off of his 3rd home run in 6 games. Trade him while his value’s up!
Ian Snell (1-0) and the bullpen were no slouch for once. Snell dominated with 10 strikeouts in 6 innings, and Phil Dumatrait, formerly of the Reds, pitched a scoreless 9th. It must be easier to close out those games when you have a 7-run lead.
The Pirates return home to host the Cubs today at 1:35pm EDT as Tom Gorzelanny (0-1) faces Ted Lilly (0-1).
