Cubs break out and hit their way into welcomed All-Star break

The Cubs were able to snap their five-game losing streak and topped the Pittsburgh Pirates 6-5 to wrap up the first half with a victory.

Describe the game in the words: A high note.

Bats are back: After combining to go 5-for-8 with two walks Saturday, Kris Bryant and Anthony Rizzo were at it again Sunday. The two stars went 7-for-9 with a walk.

Addison Russell had two hits and drove in the first two runs of the game. Albert Almora Jr. hit a go-ahead, two-run home run in the fourth and added a double in the fifth.
