Cubs' early lead wiped out by late rally
Hill tosses seven strong innings
Wuertz yields decisive homer
Quote:
PITTSBURGH -- The Cubs scored early, had their starting pitcher cruising and had plenty of chances to add runs Monday night.
Everything seemed to be in place for the Cubs' fourth consecutive victory. But somehow, it didn't happen.
Jason Bay's 100th home run as a Pirate in the bottom of the eighth, off Michael Wuertz, was the winning hit as Pittsburgh came from behind to beat the Cubs, 3-2.
