Pirates Stop Cubs

The Pirates stopped the Cubs' 5- game winning streak. All though two of their best players got traded, Pittsburgh made a strong showing in a 3-0 win over the Chicago Cubs. The Cubs had just boosted their lead to five games but they didn't win against the Pirates. The victory moved the Pirates out of last place. The manager said it was great to see the energy in those guys. He could tell they were excited to be there but also they had no idea of what they were doing. But it all worked in their favor and they beat the Cubs.
