Pittsburgh Victorious, 7-2, Versus Chicago
|
The exploits of first baseman Johnny Mize, who is tied for 4th in the NL with a .416 on-base percentage, helped the Pittsburgh Pirates defeat the Chicago Cubs, 7-2. Mize went 3 for 3 with 2 doubles. He scored 2 times and drove in 3. Johnny Schmitz got the win, improving to 8-3. He pitched 8 innings, giving up 3 hits and 2 runs, while striking out 2 and walking 7. Pittsburgh now has a record of 20-20 with the win.
The Pirates got a big at-bat from catcher Walker Cooper. For the game, Cooper was 2-5 with 2 triples, while scoring 2 times. In the bottom of the first, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a run-scoring triple. His 4th triple of the season gave Pittsburgh a 1-0 lead.
Cooper called the win "a lesson in teamwork."
