Cubs Top Pirates, 2-0, Behind Volnov
Getting an impressive start from Nicolai Volnov, Chicago beat Pittsburgh by the score of 2-0. At 80-75, Chicago is in third place in the National League Central Division.

Volnov dominated for Chicago, raising his record to 6-4. Pittsburgh hitters had few good at-bats against the right-hander, who scattered 3 hits over 8 innings while striking out 5.

Afterward, Cubs manager Mergatroid Skittle was ebullient. "That was a fun game to coach," he told a group of reporters, adding, "I hope it was just as fun to watch."
