Padres get beyond dispute to win, 4-2

PITTSBURGH —  Mike Cameron hit a go-ahead homer in the 11th inning after tying it with a run-scoring double in the ninth, and the San Diego Padres overcame a disputed call taking away a home run in a 4-2 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Thursday night.

The Padres rallied from a two-run deficit and won despite a dominating outing by Pirates starter Shawn Chacon, who shut them out on three hits over seven innings.

Chacon outpitched Greg Maddux before San Diego came back to tie the score in the ninth against Salomon Torres on RBI doubles by Adrian Gonzalez and Cameron. Cameron had extra-base hits in each of his final three at-bats.

Cameron led off the 11th with his fifth homer. Josh Bard followed two pitches later with another drive that appeared to reach the right-field seats for his second homer.

But Joe West’s umpiring crew reversed the call after Pirates Manager Jim Tracy successfully argued the drive struck a thin metal railing above the right-field wall and did not leave the park.

The reversal changing it to a double caused Bard to race off the bench and start yelling at the umpires. He was ejected by plate umpire Ed Rapuano, and Padres Manager Bud Black also was ejected for arguing.
