TEAM RISP- Pirates: 4 for 14 Braves: 4 for 9
Dale Murphy slammed 2 homeruns and had 7 RBI as the Atlanta Braves rallied
impressively to win in dramatic style over Pittsburgh Pirates, 9 to
7.
Atlanta came through with the game-winning runs in the bottom of the 9th
inning plating 3 runs utilizing 3 base hits. Brett Butler got things going
when he smacked a single. Glenn Hubbard stepped into the batter's box and he
laid down a sacrifice bunt. Claudell Washington then slapped a single.
Murphy came up and he lost the ball over the fence for three runs giving
Atlanta the victory and sending the 14,148 home-town fans home happy. This
was the kind of game that many fans love as the lead changed hands 5 times.
The victory went to Rick Camp(1-1) who went 1/3 of an inning, allowing 1 run.
Kent Tekulve(0-1) absorbed the loss in relief. The Atlanta ballclub's record
now stands at 9-10. With the loss, Pittsburgh has a record of 4-6 lately,
8-8 overall.
