    Corey Dickerson has been one of the hottest hitters in the National League.

    So when he stepped to the plate for Pittsburgh in the ninth inning of a scoreless game, with runners at the corners and one out, his teammates were sure he'd swing away.

    Instead, Dickerson bunted. And it worked, barely.

    Dickerson popped up a bunt, but it landed in between Miami pitcher Brad Ziegler and second baseman Starlin Castro and allowed a run to score Saturday night that gave the Pirates a 1-0 win over the Marlins.
