The Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Chicago Cubs, 7-5, at Wrigley Field. Billy McKinney was recognized as player of the game for his performance. He went 3 for 3 with 3 singles and 2 walks, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. The 24-year old right fielder was a menace to Chicago all day. Seranthony Dominguez notched his 19th save in 25 chances. The winning streak has now reached 5 games for Pittsburgh.

Pittsburgh grabbed control in the top of the eighth. With no one out and a runner on 1st, Robinson Chirinos delivered a 2-run home run, to make it 7-5 in favor of the Pirates.

"We'll grab a cold one tonight and go after another win tomorrow," Chirinos said.
