Cubs Go Down to Defeat, 4-3
The Atlanta Braves did just enough to secure a victory over the Chicago Cubs, 4-3, at Turner Field. Nobody did more than pitcher Jeremy Kasten. For the Cubs, the loss makes them 6-9.

The Cubs had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Braves going into the bottom of the fifth inning. That changed quickly when the two-time All-Star Jeckel Hester came to the plate. Hester hit a 3-run home run on a first pitch cutter from Chicago hurler Miles Edwards. It was Hester's 2nd home run of the year.

"As well as we've been playing, I think we can play even better," said Atlanta manager Andres Wray II.
