Happ, Cubs Too Much for Pirates
Ian Happ had a big hand in Chicago's 9-5 triumph over Pittsburgh. He rattled off 3 hits in 4 at-bats, scoring 4 times and knocking in 1 runs. The second-place Cubs are 78-80.

Jason Kipnis drew 1 walk for Chicago. The 33-year old second baseman had a key at-bat in the top of the seventh. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 5-5 tie with a run-scoring walk off Steven Brault. It was his 26th walk of the season.

"I'm just happy to help the team win," Kipnis told the Chicago Bulletin.
