Pittsburgh Pirates starter Jesse Tannehill pitched effectively against the Chicago Cubs at PNC Park. The left-hander spearheaded his team's 6-4 win. Deacon Phillippe earned the save for Pittsburgh, his 4th of the year. The first-place Pirates have a record of 35-30.

George Grantham had a big 2-run home run for the Pirates in the bottom of the second inning. With Pittsburgh leading 1-0 and a runner on 1st, he sized up a changeup from Clark Griffith, who is tied for 4th in the NL in quality starts with 11, and punished it. The result was his 3rd home run of the season, which put the Pirates on top, 3-0.

Grantham said afterward that he was glad to contribute to the win.
