Pirates Nip Cubs, 7-6
Christian Armento helped his team muscle past the Chicago Cubs, 7-6. In the game, the Pittsburgh catcher went 2-5 with a home run. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Pittsburgh reliever Jake Powell picked up the win, upping his record to 1-0. Jeremy Hamada took the loss. The first-place Pirates lifted their record to 101-50.

Armento had one of his biggest at-bats in the top of the ninth. Facing Jeremy Hamada, the Pittsburgh slugger hit a grand slam home run. Suddenly, what had been a 6-3 Pittsburgh deficit turned into a 7-6 lead. For Armento, it was his 30th home run of the season.

"We'll put this win in our pocket and go after the next one," said Armento.
