Cubs Jolt Pirates with Late Rally
Chicago beat Pittsburgh at PNC Park, escaping with a 4-3 win. The win in large part was due to third baseman Jedd Gyorko, who earned player of the game honors. He belted 2 home runs, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice. Chicago reliever Nick Burdi was credited with the win, to go to 5-8. Seranthony Dominguez took the loss for Pittsburgh. The losses continue to mount for Pittsburgh, which has now dropped 6 in a row.

Gyorko had a game-changing home run in the top of the ninth. On a 2-2 slider from Seranthony Dominguez, he banged a 2-run home run to left-center, giving the Cubs a 4-3 lead. It was the 11th home run of the year for Gyorko.

"Good pitching stops good hitting," said Gyorko. "And vice-versa."
