					| Pirates Roll Over Cubs, 11-4 |  
					| The Pittsburgh Pirates topped the Chicago Cubs by the score of 11-4, with the biggest share of the credit going to left fielder Marvin McAleer. McAleer was 2 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks, while scoring 2 runs for the Pirates on the day. With the win, Pittsburgh goes to 50-47, while the Cubs fall to 48-48. 
 Pittsburgh relied on the bat of Andrew Robinson to get the win. The first baseman ripped a 2-run  home run in the top of the second inning to put the Pirates ahead, 2-0. For the game, Robinson had 1 double and 1 home run in 5 at-bats.
 
 "Feels good to get the job done," Robinson said after the game.
