Chicago Beats Pittsburgh, 7-2
At PNC Park, the Pittsburgh Pirates and Chicago Cubs were greeted by an enthusiastic crowd.

Chicago got a strong outing from Vicente Salas as the Cubs defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates, 7-2, at PNC Park. The Cubs improved their record to 76-80 with the win over Pittsburgh.

Chicago used the stroke of Frank Chance to get the win. The first baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Cubs ahead, 4-1. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"There's a lot in this game you can't control. Just take what the game gives you. I was just doing my best to help the team win," Chance told the Chicago Today.
