  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Pittsburgh Pirates (81-77) 2 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 4 9 1
Chicago Cubs (70-88) 1 0 0 0 1 0 4 0 X 6 11 0
Cubs Keep Clicking, Win, 6-4
The Chicago Cubs dumped the Pittsburgh Pirates, 6-4, in large part due to center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong. On the day, Crow-Armstrong went 4 for 5 with 2 doubles and 2 singles. He scored 2 times for the Cubs. Chicago has rattled off 6 straight wins.

Chicago went in front, 6-4, on Victor Caratini's 4th double of the season. The bases-clearing double, which Caratini hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Pittsburgh pitcher Mike Burrows visibly perturbed.

"I like the roll we're on right now," said Crow-Armstrong after the game.
