"Luke Scott's two-run single in the first inning sparked the Orioles past the Pirates, 3-2, tonight at McKechnie Field.

Neither team's starter fared well, with Baltimore's Brad Bergesen allowing two runs and three hits in 1 1/3 innings, Zach Duke allowing three runs and four hits in 2 2/3 innings. Duke struck out his first two batters, then allowed an Adam Jones triple, two walks and three singles.

Ty Wigginton also had an RBI single for the Orioles in that inning, bringing a 3-0 lead."
