Cubs Hold Off Pirates
(Pittsburgh, PA) — Hayden Wesneski had an immaculate inning as the Cubs beat the Pirates 3-2 at PNC Park. Wesneski struck out the side on nine pitches in the bottom of the fifth, and he earned his second win after giving up just two runs in six-and-a-third innings. Christopher Morel drove in a pair of runs in the victory, and Mark Leiter Jr. picked up his third save. The Cubs improve to 65-and-85, and they send Javier Assad to the mound against Pittsburgh tonight.
