One run was the difference at Forbes Field as the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated
the Washington Nationals 7 to 6.

Washington never recovered after Pittsburgh took the lead in the bottom of the
7th inning plating one baserunner.  Washington made it exciting in the 9th,
but they were unable to push the needed runs across.  

Early Wynn(11-11) allowed 6 runs in 7 innings, and picked up the victory. Jim
Konstanty recorded his 25th save.  Johnny Podres(4-8) suffered the loss.

'We didn't get the key hits when we needed them' Gordy Renaud said. 'We did
what we could, we just didn't pull out the win. What can you say?'
