Rizzo’s HR starts rally, day after disputed slide
Anthony Rizzo’s solo homer opened the go-ahead, three-run seventh inning as the Cubs clinched the series victory over the Pirates. Elias Diaz, who was the recipient of Rizzo’s disputed slide on Monday, went deep for the Pirates. Ben Zobrist and Kyle Schwarber added a pair of two-run shots, while Austin Meadows knocked the first homer by a lefty off Jon Lester this season.
