Both Starter between the Marlins and Pirates pitched well enough to get the ""W. It was Pirates Starter though Charlie Morton leading 2-1 after seven on the hook for the "W" or a No-Decision. Out goes Morton in goes the Fightin' Fish hitting the Phone Booth on the Pirates Pen and Little Havana Hardball broke out at PNC Park.

The Fish first jumped on the Pirates Jared Hughes then Justin Wilson for a combined 5 runs (4 ER) on just one hit and three walks in a 1/3 of an inning. Loading the Sacks as the Buccos Staff did is not what Raises the Jolly Roger!

Marlins Reliever A.J. Ramos gets the win after Fish Starter Brad Hand went 6 1/3 innings allowing two runs on six hits as he struck out four. Marcell Ozuna knocked in two for the Fightin' Fish who remains 3rd in the NL East but just 5.5 games back and two games under the .500 mark.

The Pirates drop their 2nd in a row and falls to 59-53 some 2.5 games back of the NL Central leading Brewers. The Atlanta Braves need a life line as they have lost six in a row and still just 2.5 games back of the Nats as Washington cannot get to Overdrive!
