PITTSBURGH (CBS/AP) — Jayy Baez hit a go-ahead two-run home run in the sixth inning and the Chicago Cubs’ struggling offense came to life in a 4-2 over Pittsburgh.
Kris Bryant and Anthony Rizzo also homered for Chicago as the Cubs pounded out a season-high 11 hits against Tyler Anderson (0-2) and four Pittsburgh relievers.
Congratulations to @Kimbrel46, who recorded his 350th career save today!
He ranks 12th all time and 1st among active closers.#CubTogether pic.twitter.com/khRL59JMEI
