Rooney Slugs Pirates to 12-6 Win
A 4-RBI performance from the 23-year old first baseman Nick Rooney helped the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 12-6. The National League Central Division-leading Pirates are 89-58.

Rooney had a game-changing home run in the top of the seventh. On a 1-0 fastball from Casey Cogdill, he banged a 3-run home run to right, giving the Pirates a 7-6 lead. It was the 24th home run of the year for Rooney.

"Win or lose, we pick each other up in this clubhouse," Rooney told the Pittsburgh Times.
