Pirates Knock Off Chicago, 8-5
Tadashi Kawahara led Pittsburgh to a win over Chicago. The final score was 8-5. Kawahara scored 2 times, while going 2 for 3. The left fielder also was credited with 1 run batted in. Willie Lopez, who led the NL in saves with 43 last year, earned the save for Pittsburgh. The Pirates move to 69-76 with the win, while the Cubs drop to 85-61.

Pittsburgh used the timely hitting of Jonathan Nelson to capture the win. The designated hitter socked a 2-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Pirates ahead, 3-2. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"I like the vibe in the clubhouse after a win," said Nelson. "It sure beats the alternative."
