Nick Gonzales drove in the go-ahead run in the bottom of the eighth after Mitch Keller threw seven strong innings for the Pittsburgh Pirates in a 2-1 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on Monday night at PNC Park.

With the score tied 1-all, Gonzales shot one through the right side of the infield to plate Bryan Reynolds from second base and give the Pirates (51-49) the lead.

It was the second time in the last four games that Gonzales provided some late-game heroics. On Friday night against the Phillies, Gonzales delivered a walk-off single in the bottom of the ninth inning.
