Cubs | Thomas Diamond wins first game

Chicago Cubs SP Thomas Diamond won his first career game against the Pittsburgh Pirates Wednesday, Sept. 1, in relief of SP Tom Gorzelanny (hand), according to The Associated Press. Diamond gave up two runs and two hits while striking out three and walking one in 1 2/3 innings pitched. "I've been feeling pretty good and I've been working on a new pitch - a cutter - with (pitching coach) Larry (Rothschild)," Diamond said. "Today I had a little trouble with it, but it's only about a week and a half old."
