Pittsburgh turned a good effort from starter Stan Stirnweiss into a win over the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. The final score was 3-2. In 7 innings, Stirnweiss surrendered 6 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 4. He allowed 1 run. Jeremy Kennie was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 37 of 39 save opportunities.

Pittsburgh relied on the hitting of Trevor Weareorwear to pick up the win. The catcher clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Pirates on top, 3-1. For the game, Weareorwear had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

Stirnweiss told a Pittsburgh Times reporter that he was "more than satisfied" with the win.
