Cubs 6, Pirates 2  (13-4)

The location was different but the result and opponent were the same as the Cubs dispatched the Pirates in the first game of their doubleheader.  Three Finger Brown had another exception outing and he picked up a win his second straight start. He gave up just two runs on five hits and three walks.

Harry Steinfeldt had a big day at the plate.  He went three for three with a walk and two doubles.  Jimmy Sheckard singled and scored twice in the contest.

A fantastic start by Jack Pfiester went to waste as the Cubs were shut out in the second game of their doubleheader with the Pirates.  Johnny Evers and Pfiester singled and that was all the Cubs offense could muster.

Pfiester one bad inning was the seventh.  He gave up a leadoff triple and while that baserunner was eventually taken care of on a botched squeeze play, a two out RBI single by Abby gave the Pirates the only run for either side in the game.
