					| Ishihara Now 8-11 After Subduing Cardinals |  
					| In a low-scoring contest, Pittsburgh pitcher Isaburo Ishihara was marvelous in his team's 3-0 win. Steve Grier, credited with the save, is now 30 for 33 in save opportunities. The third-place Pirates improved to 62-65. 
 Ishihara's performance can only be described as masterful. He notched 10 strikeouts in 8 innings while allowing 5 hits. Ishihara, who signed a 5-year contract worth $136,000,000 on 12/26/2043, goes to 8-11 on the year with 115 strikeouts.
 
 Ishihara said his team "played with determination."
