Despite a great performance by Chicago catcher Willson Contreras, the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the Cubs by the score of 5-4 at PNC Park. Contreras went 2 for 4 with a triple. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Nick Kingham got the win, improving to 5-8. He worked 5 innings, giving up 4 runs on 11 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 0. Seranthony Dominguez notched his 8th save in 9 chances.
The Pirates got a big at-bat from left fielder Brad Miller. For the game, Miller went 1-3 with a home run. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. In the bottom of the second, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 5th home run of the season gave Pittsburgh a 2-0 lead.
"We'll savor this win," Miller told the Pittsburgh Herald, "then get ready for the next game."
Pittsburgh, at 41-64, sits in last place in the National League Central Division.
