Cubs Win by Slim Margin, 3-2
The Pittsburgh Pirates got a superb performance from pitcher Sal Gates, but the Chicago (N) Cubs still won the game, 3-2. Gates threw 7.0 innings allowing 1 runs. Sean Fox got credit for the win, improving to 1-1. He allowed no runs on 1 hit in 1.1 innings. The Cubs now have a record of 23-33.

Chicago (N) used the clutch hitting of José Contreras to capture the win. The catcher drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Cubs ahead, 3-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"It'd be nice to win by four or five runs," Contreras said, "instead of holding our breath the whole game."
