One run was the difference at Three Rivers Stadium as the Pittsburgh Pirates
defeated the Cincinnati Reds 5 to 4.
 
Pittsburgh took the lead for good in the bottom of the 5th inning when they
tallied 2 runs on 3 hits.  Cincinnati threatened in the 9th but Pittsburgh
was able to put down the rally.  
 
The victory was credited to Dave Roberts(2-4) who went 7 and 2/3 innings,
allowing 3 runs. Grant Jackson earned his 11th save.  Manny Sarmiento(1-2)
was hit with the loss.  He gave up 3 runs and 6 hits in 4 innings.  
 
'We won because we did the little things right.' Chuck Tanner said after the
game.  'This is why we practice things over and over and over, so when we get
in close games we don't make mistakes.'
