The Pittsburgh Pirates picked up a win at Wrigley Field, knocking off the Chicago Cubs, 5-4. Starting pitcher Mark Buehrle was a big reason why. The Pirates, at 42-48, sit in second place in the NL Central Division.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Bryce Harper? The Pittsburgh right fielder had a 2-run double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Pirates on top, 5-2. For the game, Harper had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"Mark did a nice job," said Pirates manager Robby Thompson.
