Cubs Hand Atlanta 6-3 Loss
Starting pitcher Matt Harvey pitched well enough to help the Chicago Cubs beat the Atlanta Firebirds, 6-3. The Firebirds, at 55-84, have lost 5 in a row.

Ben Collins drove in one run for Chicago. The 27-year old first baseman had a key at-bat in the bottom of the third. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring ground out off Kevin Key. It was his 43rd RBI of the season.

"Matt is pitching with a lot of determination and a lot of fire," said Chicago manager Warren Schaeffer.
