Pirates Rack Up 7-5 Win Versus Atlanta
Pittsburgh third baseman Mauro Rodríguez was a significant contributor in his team's 7-5 triumph over the Atlanta Firebirds. He went 3-5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3 for the Pirates. Pittsburgh now sits at 77-85, while Atlanta falls to 64-98.

With Pittsburgh trailing 1-0 in the top of the third, Rodríguez hit a changeup from Rocky Edwards for a 3-run home run. It was his 15th home run of the season and put the Pirates ahead, 3-1.

"Enjoyed this one," Rodríguez told the Pittsburgh Chronicle. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
