| PITTSBURGH -- Drew Storen made a good first impression on his new team, pitching a 1-2-3 sixth. However, the next inning tainted the relievers debut with the Seattle Mariners.Storen was charged with four runs in 1 1/3 innings as the Pittsburgh Pirates put the game out of reach on their way to a 10-1 rout of the Mariners on Wednesday night.Gerrit Cole pitched a three-hitter and slumping Andrew McCutchen had a three-run home run to help Pittsburgh hand Seattle its third loss in eight games.Storen relieved James Paxton (3-5) to begin the sixth inning with the Mariners trailing 3-1 and got three ground-ball outs. However, he walked Starling Marte with the bases loaded in the seventh inning to force in a run and was lifted in favor of Nate Karns, who gave up a three-run double to Jung Ho Kang.Storen, the one-time Washington Nationals closer, has rarely been used for multiple innings in his career but did not use the length of his outing as an excuse.A couple innings didnt go my way and thats part of it but for me its about throwing the ball good and thats what I did, Storen said. Stats might not look good, but from a stuff standpoint and how I threw it, Im happy with it.Storen struggled with the Blue Jays after being acquired from the Nationals in an offseason trade, posting a career-worst 6.31 ERA in 38 games. Yet, Mariners manager Scott Servais was pleased with what he saw.Hes going to help us, no doubt, but I probably tried to extend him too much tonight, Servais said.Making the 88th start, Cole (6-6) struck six and walked one while winning for the first time since May 20. He had gone six starts without a victory while also spending nearly five weeks on the disabled list with strained right triceps from June 11-July 16.It was good, a really good feeling, Cole said. You try to do it every time out but its not something I had been dwelling on. There are lot of variables that can leak into any start and throw you astray, so you just focus on the things you can control like your delivery and making quality pitches.Cole threw 94 pitches, 70 for strikes, against a Mariners lineup stacked with seven left-handed hitters and a switch-hitter while becoming the first Pirates pitcher to complete a game with fewer than 100 pitches since Francisco Liriano, who also needed just 94 at St. Louis on Aug. 14, 2013.McCutchens three-run blast off David Rollins came in the eighth inning and capped the scoring. His 15th home run of the season pushed the nine-year veterans career total to 166, tying Dave Parker for fifth on the Pirates all-time list.McCutchen, who also doubled, had gone 4 for 29 with eight strikeouts in his previous seven games, dropping the 2013 NL MVPs batting average to .241.Norichika Aoki hit a pair of doubles and scored the Mariners lone run in the sixth inning on Robinson Canos sacrifice fly.Paxton gave up three runs and six hits in five innings, striking out six and walking one.I didnt have my best stuff and my location wasnt really great, Paxton said. It was kind of a battle.McCutchen and Kang each had four RBI to help the Pirates win for the sixth time in nine games. Jordy Mercer also had three of the Pirates 14 hits and David Freese and Starling Marte added two each as the top four in the order went a combined 10 for 17.TRAINERS ROOMMariners: DH/OF Nelson Cruz was not in the lineup after fouling a ball off his left foot Tuesday night, though manager Scott Servais said he held the slugger out primarily because the designated hitter rule was not in effect in an NL park. ... RHP Taijuan Walker (right foot tendinitis) pitched a three-inning simulated game Wednesday, the first time he had faced hitters since going on the disabled list July 6, and will likely make a minor league rehab start this weekend. ... RHP Nick Vincent (mid-back strain), on the DL since June 27, will throw off a mound for the first time Friday since being injured and is likely to go on a rehab assignment next week.Pirates: RHP Tyler Glasnow (shoulder inflammation), who was placed on the disabled list Sunday, is expected to begin playing catch this weekend. ... C Chris Stewart (left knee discomfort) ran the bases Wednesday for the first since going on the DL on July 2 and could go on a rehab assignment by the middle of next week. ... RHP Ryan Vogelsong (facial fractures) made what was scheduled to be the last of two rehab starts for Triple-A Indianapolis on Wednesday night and allowed two runs on five hits in seven innings against Gwinett with one walk and two strikeouts in the International League. He also started twice for Double-A Altoona.UP NEXTMariners: Open a three-game series against the Cubs at Chicago on Friday with RHP Hisashi Iwakuma (11-6, 3.96 ERA) looking to win his sixth straight start as he faces LHP Jon Lester (10-4, 3.09).Pirates: Begin a three-game series Friday night at Milwaukee with LHP Steven Brault (0-1, 2.25) expected to be recalled from Indianapolis and make his second major league start, opposing Brewers RHP Junior Guerra (6-2, 2.85).

Prosecutors say the hearing at the Pretoria Magistrates Court will probably only last around 10 minutes and will be postponed until a date in August as police investigators continue to gather the evidence that will be presented at trial, possibly in September or October at the citys High Court. There, a judge will determine if the double-amputee runner could spend 25 years in jail for the Valentines Day killing of girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp. Since leaving the magistrates court building in South Africas capital city on Feb. 22, released on bail after being charged with premeditated murder, Pistorius has been seen in public just twice. And while Tuesdays hearing will likely provide little new insight into the case against him, it will give millions their first close -- if short -- look at the 26-year-old runner in months. Pistorius was sobbing the last time he was in court, days after shooting Steenkamp dead through a locked toilet door in his home in the pre-dawn hours of Feb. 14. He says he killed his 29-year-old girlfriend by mistake, believing she was a dangerous intruder in his home. Prosecutors maintain he killed her intentionally, knowing she was behind the door when he fired four times into the stall with his 9mm pistol. Since he was removed from public glare in an SUV with darkened windows at the end of that intensely scrutinized bail hearing, Pistorius has been photographed in his famous carbon fiber blades on his practice track in March, and reportedly visited a Johannesburg restaurant with some friends in April. Other than that he has been living in self-imposed isolation, his family says, surrounding himself with memories of Steenkamp, sometimes growing a beard to disguise his identity and only occasionally leaving his uncles house to attend church services. The smiling global sporting inspiration is gone. "Hes battling. But with the family behind him, his sister living in the same house as he lives ... they assist him a lot," his uncle, Arnold Pistorius, said Sunday. "And we are preparing him. He will definitely be ready.dddddddddddd Being the mind that he is, being the man that he is, he will know what its going to take to do this event." Arnold Pistorius said his nephew will be ready "once the court case starts and he will be able to stand as a man in that courtroom." As his trial edges closer and prosecutors gather the final pieces of evidence and complete the states witness list, Pistorius team is preparing to defend the 11-page affidavit he presented in bail proceedings and which allowed him to be freed. He will deny murder and argue he believed he was acting lawfully and in self-defence when he fired the shots that killed Steenkamp with his licensed handgun, criminal and firearm law experts say, even though the athlete concedes now that he made a deadly error. Pistorius also will be expected to explain his justification for those tragic actions in minute detail by taking the stand and testifying at his trial. A judge will ultimately pronounce him guilty or innocent. South Africa does not have trial by jury. The Olympian is claiming "putative self-defence," said lawyers who are knowledgeable about the case but are not representing Pistorius. The lawyers, drawing from the unusually detailed affidavit Pistorius presented, said Pistorius will maintain that in the darkened room, and in a calculation that was gravely mistaken, he decided to fire the shots that killed the model and law graduate because he was certain she was an intruder and both their lives were in danger. Its a difficult defence for any accused, legal experts say. "The fact that he has admitted that he has killed her by pulling the trigger means the state has a prima facie case and it is expected of the accused to come and convince the court otherwise," Marius du Toit, a former prosecutor, magistrate and now defence attorney with over 20 years experience in South Africas justice system said. "His version is going to be exposed and scrutinized in the finest, finest detail." And there will be many questions. "I do not see how Oscar Pistorius could have concluded that a closed door constitutes danger to such an extent that his life is in danger, bearing in mind that he had gone into that situation," leading firearm lawyer Martin Hood said. "So, it begs the question, why did he go looking for trouble?"
