Padres Rally Past Pirates In Tight 7 5 Win
San Diego on a strong finish beat Pittsburgh 7-5 to extend its win streak to 10 of 11. Vaughn delivered a go-ahead two-run homer after a late Pirates surge, as Tony Gwynn and others contributed key hits in a ballpark where the Padres rarely win. The win improved their record to 13-3 while Joey Hamilton struggled early but the bullpen locked it down.
