Braves Top Cubs, 2-1, Behind Officer
The Atlanta Braves beat the Chicago Cubs, 2-1, at Atlanta Fulton County Stadium. Starting pitcher Jim Officer was a big reason why. He held his opponent in check all game. Chicago's current losing streak is now 4 games.

Officer, who dominated for Atlanta, earned the victory to move to 1-0. He was in control the whole game, scattering 3 hits over 8 innings, while striking out 2. Chicago batters could never bunch up enough hits to produce a rally.

"For the most part, I made good pitches when I needed to," said Officer.
