Pirates Come Up Short at Chicago, 10-9
|
In a high-scoring contest between Chicago and Pittsburgh, third baseman Kevin Millar was a difference-maker. Millar, who is on pace for 114 RBI this season, distinguished himself in the 10-9 Chicago win. He was 2-2 with 2 singles and 3 walks, while scoring 2 times. Greg Maddux got the win, improving to 18-11. He held the Pirates to 3 runs on 6 hits over 6.2 innings, while striking out 7 and walking 2. Pittsburgh's current losing streak is now 4 games.
Bobby Higginson, who is on pace for 114 RBI this season, chipped in a grand slam home run for Chicago in the bottom of the sixth. For the game, the center fielder had 2 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 4 runs batted in.
"We swung the bats good throughout the lineup," said Chicago skipper Adam Spencer.
