Kang hits key double amid investigation, Bucs beat Cards 7-5 (Yahoo Sports)

Jung Ho Kang drove in two key runs with a seventh-inning double a day after Chicago police said they were investigating an allegation of sexual assault against the Pirates infielder, and Pittsburgh beat the St. Louis Cardinals 7-5 on Wednesday night for its sixth straight comeback win. Pittsburgh has won seven consecutive overall and leapfrogged St. Louis for second place in the NL Central. It got homers from David Freese and Sean Rodriguez, and Kang's double off Jonathan Broxton (1-1) put the Pirates up 6-5 after they trailed 5-1.
