Gerut was acquired by the Chicago Cubs from the Indians on July 18, {{By|2005}}, in exchange for Jason Dubois. On July 31, 2005, Gerut was acquired by the Pittsburgh Pirates in exchange for fellow outfielder Matt Lawton.

On April 13, 2009, he recorded the first hit and home run at Citi Field against the New York Mets on the third pitch off Mets starting pitcher Mike Pelfrey. Gerut became the first player in major league history to open a new ballpark with a leadoff homer.[2]
