Walk-off. BUCS WIN.

Rays 4, Pirates 5
Jose Tabata and Neil Walker both had a good day as Tabata went 2 for 5 with a homer and Walker went 2 for 3 with a triple. Pedro Alvarez also had a double. The game was tied in the bottom of the 9th, but Josh Rodriguez scored after Pedro Ciriaco reached on a throwing error.

On the mound, Paul Maholm was solid, pitching 5 innings with 3 ER, 5 Hits, and 1 walk, but he did allow 2 homers. He struck out 5. Joel Hanrahan returned to his normal form with 2 scoreless, hitless innings and striking out 3. Chris Leroux finished the job with two innings of work, earning a Blown Save and the Win with 3 Hits, 1 ER, 1 HR, 0 BB, and 3 Ks.

Up next is another 1 pm game at the Twins. It will be broadcast on MLB network, or for those without, on ESPN 970.
