Pirates Need a Pick-Me-Up as Slump Hits Batting
Pittsburgh Pirates manager Harry Walker urged a spark from the lineup after a rainout left the team searching for run support. The club leads the league in team hitting last year but has struggled lately, with only one homer since last Sunday and none in the last five games. Walker said pitching is solid but hitters must relieve pressure on hurlers and provide a boost. The Pirates sit in sixth, eight games behind St Louis and Chicago, as they open a three game set against the Dodgers with Tom Smiley opposing Don Drysdale.
