5 Straight Wins for Pirates
Conditions were not ideal but Pittsburgh and Chicago were able to put their game in the books.

The Chicago Cubs got a sterling performance from pitcher Unkei Wakamatsu, but the Pittsburgh Pirates still prevailed, 5-3. Wakamatsu threw 6.1 innings of shutout ball. The winner was Kwang-sik Kim in relief. His record improves to 1-2. George Poirier took the loss. Steve Grier recorded the save for Pittsburgh, his 8th of the season.

Pittsburgh used a timely hit from Mike Bates to get the win. The third baseman stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the ninth inning to put the Pirates ahead, 4-3. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"I felt good up there," said Bates. "I saw the ball well."

The win puts Pittsburgh at 30-26 this season.
