Hoffmeister has 3 hits today, Leads Pirates to Win
The Pittsburgh Pirates beat the St. Louis Cardinals by a score of 6-1. Pittsburgh third baseman Jesse Hoffmeister deserved the lion's share of the credit. Hoffmeister went 3-3 with a home run and a triple, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3 for the Pirates. Pittsburgh pitcher Henry Jones got the win, upping his record to 4-5. John McCarty got the loss. The 7th-place Pirates have won 4 straight games.

Hoffmeister had a key at-bat for Pittsburgh early in the game. With runners on 1st and 2nd, he hit a 2-run triple. It was his 7th triple of the season and gave Pittsburgh an early 2-0 lead.

"Anytime I can help the team, I feel good about it," said Hoffmeister.
