CHICAGO (AP) – Ian Happ hit a game-ending single in the 10th inning, and the Chicago Cubs edged the Pittsburgh Pirates 3-2 on Sunday.

Dansby Swanson and Michael Busch each had two hits for Chicago. Swanson and Seiya Suzuki each drove in a run.

Chris Flexen (4-0) pitched a 1-2-3 10th for the win, completing a four-hitter.

Spencer Horwitz had two hits and drove in a run for the Pirates. Alexander Canario had a run-scoring groundout.
