Pirates Walk Off with 4-3 Win
The Pittsburgh Pirates topped the Brooklyn Dodgers by the score of 4-3, with the largest share of the credit going to catcher Billy Shantz. Shantz went 3-3 with 3 singles. He drove in 2 runs for the Pirates. The win was Darren Holmes's in relief. His record improves to 2-0. Mike A Anderson took the loss for Brooklyn. The win brings the Pirates to 9-6, a promising start as the team looks to return to the playoffs.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the ninth inning, when Pittsburgh third baseman Richie Hebner, facing Tex Shirley, had a run-scoring hit-by-pitch. It gave the Pirates the 4-3 win.

"This place went bonkers at the end," Hebner said.
