					| Pittsburgh Wins Again, 2-1 |  
					| The Pittsburgh Pirates got a strong performance from pitcher Tim Wichman, who stymied the San Diego offense en route to a 2-1 win in Game 2 of the League Championship Series today. The Padres could never get a bead on the left-handed Wichman, who threw 6.1 innings allowing 1 runs. The Pirates now hold a 2-0 advantage in the best-of-7 series. 
 Pittsburgh relied on the hitting of Brad Day to pick up the win. The first baseman clubbed a 2-run  home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Pirates on top, 2-1. For the game, Day had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.
 
 Wichman said afterward that his team has grown over the course of the season, adding: "It feels good when a plan comes together."
 
 The next game is set to be played for Sunday, October 21st , 2046 at PNC Park in Pittsburgh.
