Six-run second lifts Pirates past Nationals

<h3>PITTSBURGH 7, WASHINGTON 2</h3>PITTSBURGH (Ticker) -- On a night when thousands of PittsburghPirates fans staged a walkout to protest 15 consecutive losingseasons, the team turned in a quality performance.

Tom Gorzelanny pitched 7 1/3 innings of solid ball and AdamLaRoche had three RBI as the Pirates rode a six-run secondinning to a 7-2 victory over the Washington Nationals onSaturday.

Gorzelanny (8-4) allowed two runs and five hits, striking outsix and walking three for Pittsburgh, which has won four offive.

But the Pirates broke the game open in the second, sending 10men to the plate. After Xavier Nady singled and Ryan Doumitdoubled, Nationals starter Jason Bergmann walked Ronny Paulinoand Jack Wilson singled to center to score Nady and Doumit.

Four batters later, Freddy Sanchez singled to center to drive inPaulino and Wilson, and LaRoche followed by plating NateMcLouth and Sanchez with a double to center.

Ronnie Belliard hit his third home run for reeling Washington,which has lost five in a row, six of seven and 11 of 14.

The Nationals scored the game's first run in the first whenDmitri Young's single scored Ryan Zimmerman, who was 2-for-4 inthe contest.

Considering Washington had scored a total of five runs in itsprevious four games and had not scored six in a contest sinceJune 18, that figured to be all Gorzelanny needed.

The lefthander, who entered the game with a 3.10 ERA that ranked10th in the National League, has not given up six runs in agame this season and has only allowed more than three runstwice.

Bergmann (1-5), who was making his second start since recoveringfrom elbow inflammation that caused him to miss five weeks,allowed six runs and eight hits in four innings, walking two andstriking out one.

LaRoche hit his 10th homer of the season with nobody on in thefifth to make it 7-1. But Belliard's shot to left got that runback for Washington a half-inning later.

Thousands of fans in the crowd of 26,959 left their seats at theend of the third inning in a walkout that had been publicizedthroughout the week in Pittsburgh. Many rallied beforehandacross the street from the park outside a bar.

Protesting fans, angered by a perceived lack of financialcommitment to the team by principal owner Bob Nutting, woregreen shirts. Most did not leave the stadium and only retreatedto the concourse to return to their seats for the start of thefifth inning.
