The Pittsburgh Pirates stopped the Chicago Cubs, 9-6, at Three Rivers Stadium. The Pirates got a big game from Jose Valentin, who went 3-4 with a home run and a double. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Pittsburgh, now 6-3, has played well in the early going.

Brad Ausmus put Pittsburgh in front, 8-4, when he took Teddy Higuera downtown. His 3-run home run came with two out in the bottom of the third. It was his 1st home run of the season.

"Baseball is about momentum," said Valentin, "and we feel we've got it in our favor after that win."
