Steelers Score Late, Topple Bengals, 6-4
The Pittsburgh Steelers had to overcome a fine effort from Cincinnati pitcher Jason Cashwell to win, 6-4, at Paul Brown Stadium. Cashwell went 8 innings and allowed 3 runs. Tony Stone recorded the save, his 9th. The last-place Steelers go to 18-31.

Pittsburgh used the timely hitting of Joe Howard to seize the win. The first baseman stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Steelers on top, 6-4. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"I'm proud to wear a Pittsburgh jersey," Howard told the Pittsburgh Observer. "We played a good game and came out with the win. What more can you ask for?"
