    The Pittsburgh Pirates were defeated 3-2 by the St. Louis Cardinals in 10 innings on the Fourth of July after Dennis Santana surrendered a pair of runs in the extra frame at PNC Park.

    Automatic runner Michael Siani advanced to third when José Fermín opened the top of the 10th with a ground out to second base. Pedo Pagés followed by doubling past the outstretched glove of center fielder Michael A. Taylor. Two batters later, Alec Burleson looped a single into shallow left field off of Santana (2-1).

    A day after rallying for the win in the bottom of the 10th, the Pirates (41-45) were unable to overcome the deficit against John King.
