Pirates' walk-off win personifies 'progress'

Michael Chavis helped cap a second comeback Friday night at PNC Park with a bases-loaded, walk-off RBI single to top the Reds, 5-4. It was a big night for a Pirates team that's lacked hits in big spots too often this season.

Ben Gamel helped the Pirates complete a comeback from a 3-0 hole with an RBI single of his own just a couple innings prior. After an Oneil Cruz error opened the door for the Reds to regain the lead in the eighth inning, Kevin Newman continued his strong form at the plate, tying the game once again in the ninth with an RBI double.
