The Chicago Cubs bested the Pittsburgh Pirates by a score of 5-3, with first baseman Dave Kingman getting the main credit. On the day, Kingman went 1-2 with a home run off LHP John Candelaria and 3 walks. He drove in 3 runs and scored once for the Cubs. The winner was Dennis Lamp, who threw 114 pitches over 8 innings. The right-hander was charged with 3 runs on 7 hits. Bruce Sutter locked down his 2nd save.

Mike Vail went 1-4 with a walk for Chicago. The 28-year old right fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the eighth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 3-3 tie with a run-scoring walk off Enrique Romo. It was his 3rd walk of the season.

"I really like what we did out there today," Kingman said after the game.

Chicago is still hoping to get on a roll. The win is just their 2nd in 12 games.
