Giants Lose at Home, 3-1
Luis Fernández, who is tied for 10th in the NL with a 1.16 WHIP, never let the Giants get in a groove. The right-hander used his bread and butter, his curveball, to pitch the Pirates to a win, 3-1. Fernández got the win, improving to 6-9. He gave up 4 hits and walked 1 over 7.2 innings. He allowed 1 run. The second-place Pirates now have a win-loss record of 52-54.

Pittsburgh relied on the bat of Blake Swihart to get the win. The catcher produced a 2-run home run in the top of the third inning to put the Pirates ahead, 2-0. For the game, Swihart had 1 double and 1 home run in 3 at-bats.

"We faced good pitching and still got it done," said Swihart.
