Alex Presley got things started in the 3rd with a two-run shot to right, and the Bucco bats got on a roll in the 4th with a 4-run inning, including a rare Matt Diaz triple. But this game was all about the home run, as a total of 6 were hit between the two clubs. Andrew McCutchen hit what proved to be the winning home run in the 7th, and the Bucs hung on by the skin of their teeth to a victory for Kevin Correia and another save for Joel Hanrahan, now 1 shy of the league lead.
