Visco in Fine Form in 5-1 Pittsburgh Win
Dennis Visco, who leads the NBL in strikeouts with 97, never let the Explorers get in a groove. The left-hander used his bread and butter, his splitter, to pitch the Industrials to a win, 5-1. After today's action, Pittsburgh sits at 42-36; St. Louis slips to 34-42.

Visco allowed 1 run on 5 hits over 9 innings for Pittsburgh. With the win, the southpaw is 8-4 with an ERA of 2.77.

"It's about putting our team in the best position to win ballgames," said Visco.
