Pirates Drop Cubs, 4-1
The Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Chicago Cubs, 4-1, at Wrigley Field. Starting pitcher Ed Heusser was a big reason why. He held his opponent in check all game. The Pirates now own a record of 65-94.

Pittsburgh used the clutch hitting of Harvey Kuenn to capture the win. The right fielder drilled a bases-clearing double in the top of the sixth inning to give the Pirates the lead, 3-1. For the game, Kuenn had 1 single and 1 double in 4 at-bats.

"It's a mindset," said Heusser. "Just trying to do your job, trying to be consistent."
