Tabata Powers Bucs to Road Win

The Pittsburgh Pirates made a big 4-run 4th inning stick as they defeated the Cards 4-3 to even the series at 1.

Clint Hurdle was pleasantly suprised with the club's improved defense and pitching, "Charlie had a great outing today. This is a huge step forward in putting last year behind him. We have the utmost confidence in him and will continue to stick with him."

Morton delivers a pitch against the Cards

Tabata hits the first of his 2 doubles
