Homers lift Pirates over Mets

Baseball Betting Lines

08/22/2010 - Pittsburgh, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jose Tabata hit a solo homer in the bottom of the sixth inning and the Pittsburgh Pirates held on for a 2-1 win over the New York Mets in the finale of a three-game series at PNC Park.

Lastings Milledge added a solo shot for Pittsburgh, which snapped a five-game slide and won for only the second time in its last 14 games overall.

Zach Duke (6-12) won for the first time since beating Colorado on July 27th. The left-hander went seven innings, surrendering one run on five hits with two walks and fanned five.

Carlos Beltran knocked in the lone run with a sacrifice fly for the Mets, who had won four of six entering the series finale.

Johan Santana (10-8) was the hard-luck loser despite throwing his fourth complete game of the season and 13th of his career. The lefty gave up two runs on four hits, struck out nine and walked a batter.
