Cubs Earn 4-3 Win Versus Pirates
The Chicago Cubs topped the Pittsburgh Pirates, 4-3, in National League action at PNC Park. The game was highlighted by the performance of Chicago pitcher Yeong-kil Suck. Eric Oakes, credited with the save, is now 9 for 11 in save opportunities. The losing streak for Pittsburgh has now reached 5 games.

Chicago used the timely hitting of Yasuhide Kasahara to seize the win. The shortstop stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Cubs on top, 4-3. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We put it together today and came out with the win," Suck said in postgame remarks. "That's the main thing."
