Braves Losers, 5-2, Versus Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh pitcher Bob Veale had a large part in his team subduing the Atlanta Braves, 5-2. The opposition could never mount much of a rally against the left-hander. Veale yielded 2 runs over 6 innings to notch the win. He scattered 2 hits, walked 5, and struck out 4. His record improves to 6-7. Pittsburgh's record now stands at 53-67, placing them 4th in the National League Central Division.

With Pittsburgh leading 1-0 in the top of the second, Jason Kendall hit a run-scoring single off Atlanta pitcher Sam Crawford. It put the Pirates ahead 2-0.

"Even warm beer tastes good after a win," said Kendall.
