Game Story

CHICAGO (Ticker) -- This time, Rob Mackowiak had no home run 
magic against the Chicago Cubs.

Greg Maddux pitched seven strong innings and LaTroy Hawkins
struck out Mackowiak with two runners on in the ninth as the
Cubs posted a 4-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates in the
rubber game of their three-game series.

Maddux (5-4) allowed just four hits, walked none and struck out
six for his 294th career win, including 100 with the Cubs.

"(Catcher) Paul Bako called a great game today," said Maddux,
who threw 54 of his 75 pitches for strikes. "He kept asking for
the right pitch in the right location.  My command was good
enough that I was able to do that most of the time."

"I don't think there was any question that was the best he
pitched all year," Bako said.  "He had a great combination of
command of his pitches and real good movement.  His rhythm was
unbelievable.  That was Greg Maddux at his very best today."

Pittsburgh's Ryan Vogelsong (1-6) pitched six scoreless innings
before yielding a leadoff home run to former Pirate Aramis
Ramirez in the seventh, tying the game at 1-1.  Todd
Hollandsworth followed with a single and Vogelsong hit Derrek
Lee with a pitch.  Hollandsworth moved to third on a deep fly to
center by Corey Patterson and scored on Michael Barrett's
sacrifice fly.

"I'm happy that I went six solid innings, but I lost the game
for us in the seventh," said Vogelsong, who is 0-6 in 10 starts
since his lone win on April 8. "I thought Ramirez's hit was just
a fly ball, but it's a home run.  Then I gave up a hit to the
next guy and it ends up being the winning run."

The Cubs added two runs in the eighth on an RBI single by Jose
Macias and a throwing error by second baseman Abraham Nunez.

But even a 4-1 lead was not safe for the Cubs against the
Pirates, who have four come-from-behind wins against Chicago
this season.  And sure enough Mackowiak came to the plate with
two runners on and two outs in the ninth.

On May 28, Mackowiak hit a game-winning grand slam off Cubs
reliever Joe Borowski in the ninth inning in the first game of a
doubleheader.  In the second game, Mackowiak blasted a
game-tying two-run homer in the ninth inning against Hawkins.

This time, Hawkins struck out Mackowiak for his fourth save in
six opportunities.

"He (Mackowiak) killed us last weekend," Cubs manager Dusty
Baker said. "Hawkins got him this time.  Hawkins will get a lot
of opportunities to close, but we'll try to mix and match with
(Kyle) Farnsworth and (Mike) Remlinger."

Earlier in the day, the Cubs placed ailing closer Joe Borowski
on the 15-day disabled list with a right shoulder strain.

The Pirates scored their only run in the third inning.  Tike
Redman hit a bloop single, moved to second on Vogelsong's
sacrifice and came home on a two-out single to center by Jason
Kendall.

Vogelsong made that lead stand through the sixth, retiring 14 of
15 batters after a single by Lee in the second.

"We finally got the pitching coming, now the offense is not
coming," said Pirates manager Lloyd McClendon, who watched the
game from the press box while serving the second game of a
two-game suspension.
