    Manager Clint Hurdle doesn't care whether people call Francisco Liriano the Pittsburgh Pirates' ace or No. 1 or whatever.

    "I'm not big on labels. I just like to pencil his name in every fifth day," Hurdle said after Liriano struck out a season-high 13 to lead Pittsburgh to a 3-1 victory against the San Diego Padres on Monday night.
