Alex Presley's infield single in the bottom of the 10th gave the Pirates a 2-1 victory over the Phillies Saturday night at PNC Park.

Rod Barajas doubled off the top of the center-field wall in the 10th and Michael McKenry pinch-ran for him. Clint Barmes' sacrifice bunt sent McKenry to third. Joe Blanton hit Josh Harrison, but Jose Tabata popped out. Presley beat out an infield single that scored McKenry and gave the Pirates the walk-off win.

The Pirates improved to 1-1.
