St Louis were leading 10-9 when Wright's unassisted triple play ended their inning, but because the Pirates were trailing they had to play out the bottom of the ninth. 10-9 ended up being the final score. Only two of the fifteen unassisted triple plays in the MLB have ended the game: Johnny Neun of the Detroit Tigers, who beat the Cleveland Indians 1-0 on May 31, 1927, and Eric Bruntlett of the Philadelphia Phillies, who beat the New York Mets 9-7 on August 23, 2009.
Why is the pitcher considered the most important defensive player on the team in baseball?
The pitcher in baseball at all levels of the game is vital to the defensive of the team. This holds true for youth baseball, college and professional baseball as well. Generally speaking the pitcher is the most important defensive player because he is involved with every single play in the inning pitched. The same is true for the team catcher, however, the pitcher must throw his pitch in a manner that prevents a batter from getting on base. If a pitcher cannot make most batters draw a strike or have the batter hit the ball to one of his teammates then the defense is in trouble.

What is a defensive action in baseball?
That is a term generally used when a base runner is stealing a base. The catcher will not attempt to make a play on the runner (throw the ball to the base that the runner is attempting to steal). Sometimes, the official scorer will rule this 'defensive indifference' and not award the runner with a stolen base. You might see this in the 9th inning of a game where the team batting is down by several runs and the defensive team is more concerned with getting the batter out than attempting to throw out a base runner attempting to steal since that run will not affect the outcome of the game.
