Game Summary
Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the St. Louis Cardinals 2-0. The Pirates won thanks to dominant pitching and timely offense; Jared Jones worked seven shutout innings with one hit allowed and nine strikeouts, and the bullpen preserved the lead with Gregory Soto finishing a clean ninth for the save. The Cardinals managed just one hit and struck out 14 times. Pittsburgh broke a scoreless tie in the sixth when Ryan O'Hearn singled home Oneil Cruz, and they added an insurance run in the seventh on a wild pitch by Cade Winquest after Konnor Griffin stole second. Griffin also went 2-for-4 with a triple and a stolen base in the win.
