The Pirates reduced their "magic number" to three in the East Division race by defeating the Cubs, 5-2. The victory increased the Pirates' lead over the runner-up Cubs to 15 games. Bob Moose, who started for the Pirates, pitched 6 1/3 innings before being forced off the mound when Jose Cardenal lined a single off his wrist. The hit was only the third given up by Moose. Ramon Hernandez relieved and held the Cubs hitless the rest of the way.
