Jaso's HR ends Bucs' losing streak at Busch
On the 8th pitch of the at-bat, John Jaso launches a go-ahead solo home run to right-center field to give the Pirates a 4-3 lead in the 9thST. LOUIS -- One inning after David Freese added another game-tying, two-out hit to his Busch Stadium resume, John Jaso capped the Pirates' comeback with a solo homer that stood as the difference in Pittsburgh's 4-3 win.
The back-and-forth affair was nothing new for these two teams; they played a trio of one-run games at Busch Stadium earlier this year. The difference, however, was who won this one. With their victory Friday, the Pirates snapped their seven-game losing streak at Busch Stadium.
