The Pittsburgh Pirates powered past the Chicago Cubs, 8-0, at Wrigley Field. Kruise Newman went 2-4 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 3 and driving in 2, to lead the charge. John Pittman got credit for the win, improving to 1-0. He allowed no runs on 2 hits in 5 innings. The Pirates raised their record to 6-0.
