Lux has 3 hits tonight, Leads Cubs to Win
The Chicago Cubs knocked off the Pittsburgh Pirates, 7-6, at Wrigley Field. Gavin Lux was a big reason Chicago won. The second baseman was 3 for 3 with a home run, a double, a walk, and was hit by a pitch, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Anthony Klumpp earned the win after being summoned from the bullpen. The left-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 1.2 innings. His record is now 6-3. Norberto Vargas, credited with the save, is now 12 for 16 in save opportunities.

Lux had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the eighth. On a 2-1 fastball from Bill Brown, he banged a 2-run home run to right, giving the Cubs a 7-6 lead. It was the 16th home run of the year for Lux.

"Winning the game is always the first objective," Lux said.

The Cubs sport a record of 60-91.
