Pirates Lose By a Run at Chicago
Wrigley Field was the site of an exciting ballgame between the Chicago Cubs and Pittsburgh Pirates.

The Chicago Cubs topped the Pittsburgh Pirates, 8-7, with catcher Edgar Guzman playing a big role. Guzman went 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Cubs in the win. The save went to Andrew Gray, his 28th this season.

The Cubs got a big hit from second baseman Tommy Ash. Facing Pittsburgh pitcher Bobby Hill in the bottom of the sixth, Ash pounded a solo home run to left. His 17th home run of the season put the Cubs ahead, 8-3.

"Nothing is scripted in this game," said Ash.

The Pirates have now dropped 5 straight.
