Late Magic Gets Atlanta 5-4 Win
The Atlanta Braves racked up a win at Wrigley Field, bumping off the Chicago Cubs, 5-4. Bruce Esparza, who started for Atlanta, pitched effectively for his team. The win was credited to Andy Brown in relief. His record improves to 3-3. Jon Orozco took the loss. Bobby Scalise picked up the save for Atlanta, his 1st of the year.

This game was not decided until Nathan Debrow came to bat in the top of the 14th. With the bases loaded and two out, the Atlanta shortstop drew a walk, driving in 1 run. The Braves took the lead, 5-4.

"Our guys refused to lose," said Esparza.

The win makes Atlanta 75-46.
