Cubs Beat Pirates, 8-6, at Caterpillar Field
Evan Perry was a major factor in the 8-6 Chicago win over Pittsburgh. The Cubs first baseman went 3 for 4 with 2 doubles and a walk, while scoring 4 runs. Mike Simoneaux, the winning pitcher, is now 8-13. He went 6 innings, allowing 4 runs on 9 hits, while fanning 3 and walking 1. Sam Hatfield picked up his 34th save of the season.

The Cubs got an important contribution from second baseman Max Hollister, who in the bottom of the fourth hit a 2-2 circle change to left-center for a 2-run double. It was his 25th double of the season and put the Cubs ahead, 6-3.

Perry told a Chicago Times reporter that he was "delighted" with the win.

Chicago, now 69-74, holds down third place in the National League Central Division.
