Dodgers 5, Pirates 4

On a gray day in Pittsburgh, it might have been even grayer for the Dodgers. Saito left with one out in the ninth, and it appears it was an issue with one of his legs. I'll found out when we get downstairs. This would be a HUGE loss for the Dodgers, a closer who has become almost as reliable as Gagne once was. Beimel came in to finish the game and thus got his first save of the year by recording the final two outs in what is essentially his hometown. ... That three-way tie just won't go away. The Snakes already beat the Mets, giving them nine wins in their past 10 games and two of three for the weekend against the National League's best team, and the Pods won at the Toilet Bowl. Dodgers go to 33-23.
