Pirates Pick Up 5-3 Win
The Pittsburgh Pirates racked up a win at Exposition Park 1891-1908, bumping off the Philadelphia Phillies, 5-3. Phil Saylor, who started for Pittsburgh, pitched effectively for his team. The Pirates move to 49-72 with the win, while the Phillies drop to 68-53.

The Pirates got an important contribution from second baseman Tun Berger, who in the bottom of the fourth knocked a 2-2 fastball into right for a 2-run double. It was his 10th double of the season and put the Pirates ahead, 3-0.

"I found a nice groove out there," said Saylor.
