 CHICAGO (AP) - One wasn't enough for Chris Duffy. Duffy homered leading off the game, then hit a tiebreaking drive in the ninth inning Thursday that led the Pittsburgh Pirates over the Chicago Cubs 7-5.
"It's always nice to hit a home run," Duffy said. "Two is that much better, especially when we win the game."
After Pittsburgh had wasted a five-run lead, Duffy connected off Scott Eyre (0-2) leading off the ninth for his third homer in 353 career at-bats. One out later, Xavier Nady homered against Ryan Dempster.
