A pair of two-run singles by Tim Foli paced the Pirates to an 8-6 verdict over the Giants. The score was 6-6 going into the bottom of the eighth inning when Ed Ott and Bill Robinson walked and advanced a base on an infield out by Omar Moreno. Foli then drove both runners home with a single. The Buc shortstop previously capped a four-run outburst in the second with his first single.
