Pirates Down Astros; Win 8th Straight

The Pirates continued their winning ways in Houston with a 5-2 victory over the Astros. The Pirates jumped on the 'Stros in the top of the 1st inning with a solo HR from Garrett Jones.

Although his 14 gm hitting streak was snapped, Cutch shows some leather

Zach Duke pitched 6 strong innings in picking up his 2nd win of the season. Lastings Milledge extended his hitting streak to 12 games, but Andrew McCutchen's 14 game streak came to an end. Justin Smoak hit his 2nd HR of the season, and Neil Walker had his 1st hit and RBI.

Smoak admires his 9th inning solo HR

The Pirates and Astros meet again in Game 2 tomorrow night in Houston.
