The Pittsburgh Pirates overcame a good performance by Chicago left fielder Justin Upton to knock off Chicago, 10-8, at PNC Park. Upton went 3-5 with 2 home runs. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. Joe Kelly was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 4 of 7 save opportunities. The last-place Pirates lifted their record to 47-75.

The Pirates got a big at-bat from third baseman Jake Lamb. For the game, Lamb went 3-4 with 3 singles and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. In the bottom of the fifth, with the bases loaded, he stroked a 2-run single. His 127th hit of the season gave Pittsburgh a 6-4 lead.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Lamb. "And not try to do too much."
