The Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the Chicago Cubs by a score of 6 to 3 at

Wrigley Field.

 

Roy Face(6-5) pitched a solid game.  He allowed 12 hits and 1 walk in 8 and

2/3 innings.  Face chalked up 9 strikeouts.  Chicago threatened in the 9th

but Pittsburgh was able to put down the rally.  

 

Face got help from Max Surkont who was credited with his 2nd save.  Jim

Davis(5-3) was charged with the loss.  He was touched for 8 hits and 2 walks

in 4 and 1/3 innings.  

 

'We didn't get the key hits when we needed them' Stan Hack said. 'We did what

we could, we just didn't pull out the win. What can you say?'
