    The Pittsburgh Pirates have struggled so mightily to score runs this season, they weren't going to let one practically handed to them get away.

    Neil Walker advanced to third when New York center fielder Kirk Nieuwenhuis misplayed Walker's deep fly ball leading off the eighth and Walker scored on Clint Barmes' sacrifice fly two batters later to lift the Pirates to an unlikely 5-4 victory.
