Hart, Clement Lead Pirates to Victory

Kevin Hart threw 7 scoreless innings and Jeff Clement hit a 3-run HR - his 1st of the year- to lead the Pirates to a 3-0 win over the Reds.

Hart had this to say about his effort..."I felt great out there tonight. I was hitting my spots, and when Cincy did hit it, they hit it right to my defense. I am a lot more pleased with this effort than my first start of the season."

Clement is finally starting to get his swing going, bringing his batting average from .143 to .250 over the last couple of games. When asked about his recentsurge, Clement stated, "When I saw (Steve) Pearce was recalled, I knew that I had to get my butt in gear. If I didn't start to play up to par, I could be sent to Indy at anytime."

With this win, the Pirates pulled just a game behind Central Division leading St. Louis. The series against the Reds continues tomorrow night at 7pm at PNC Park.
