Cubs make history in 21-0 rout of Pirates

The Cubs needed a good day. They got something historic instead.

Their 21-0 victory Saturday against the Pirates in front of 39,917 at Wrigley Field was their most lopsided shutout win since at least 1901. Those 21 runs (nine more than they put up during the four-game skid they snapped) were the most since scoring 26 Aug. 18, 1995, at Colorado, and the Cubs went 23-for-48 against four Pirates pitchers.
