Brad Bergesen gave up two runs in the top of the first inning, but there was probably only one batter that might have caused him to second-guess himself. He walked Delwyn Young after leadoff man Andrew McCutcheon's chopper to third survived a diving stab by Miguel Tejada for an infield single.
Tejada almost made a web gem, but he probably would not have had a play if he had snagged the ball in full flight toward the third base line. It was actually a pretty nice attempt that showed he still has great reflexes and a lot of athleticism. Ryan Church loaded the bases with a sharp single through the right side and the Pirates scored their two runs on a sacrifice fly and an error by second baseman Ty Wigginton on a double play ground ball that should have gotten Bergesen out of the inning.
