The Cubs took a 1-0 lead in the seventh, but the Pirates loaded the bases in the eighth as Koji Uehara walked two and served up a double to Frazier. Jordy Mercer then tied the game with an RBI single, the first run off Uehara in seven outings this season. Hector Rondon took over and got Starling Marte to hit into a fielder's choice, forcing the runner at home.
McCutchen then hit a grounder to Rizzo, who threw home for the force. Hanson, who was running, was called safe, but the Cubs challenged the call.
