Dave Giusti, who relieved Bob Johnson in the eighth inning and snuffed out an Astros' rally, was credited with his 27th save as the Pirates gained a 5-2 victory. Jackie Hernandez, although going hitless, batted in two of the Pirates' runs with a sacrifice fly and a groundout. Triples by Manny Sanguillen and Rennie Stennett led to two other tallies.
