Cubs Deal Pirates 4-2 Defeat
The Chicago Cubs got a stellar performance from pitcher Miles Edwards, who handcuffed the Pittsburgh offense en route to a win, 4-2, at PNC Park. In 7.1 innings, Edwards surrendered 4 hits, while striking out 6 and walking 1. He allowed 1 run. Ryohei Uda collected save number 6.

Chicago used a well-timed hit by Josh Kalman to capture the win. The first baseman socked a run-scoring double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Cubs ahead, 1-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"Enjoyed this one," Kalman told the Chicago Chronicle. "But it's back to work tomorrow."

At 51-70, the Cubs find themselves in last place in the National League Central Division.
