In the bottom of the seventh, Chicago second baseman Steve Bartman Jr. gave his team the lead. With two out and runners on 1st and 2nd, Punchy hit his 3rd triple of the year. Pittsburgh pitcher Tim Wichman surrendered it. With that, the Cubs jumped in front, 5-4.

"That's a solid team effort right there," said Norton. "Everyone's feeling positive after that win."
