Slumping Pirates Lose 7th Straight
The Philadelphia Phillies took Pittsburgh pitcher Dave Williams's best shot and still were able to claim a win at PNC Park. The final score had Philadelphia getting past the Pirates, 5-4. Williams went 6.2 innings and allowed 2 runs, striking out 7. Taylor Buchholz claimed the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 1.1 innings. His record stands at 4-1. Earning his 22nd save for Philadelphia was Huston Street.

Philadelphia used a timely hit from Scott Rolen to get the win. The third baseman stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Phillies ahead, 5-4. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"Everyone's kind of edgy right now," said losing manager Kevin Birdwell, "but nothing a couple of wins wouldn't cure."

The current losing streak for Pittsburgh has reached 7 games.
