Late Rally by Cubs Seals 6th Straight Win
The Chicago Cubs had to overcome a fine effort from Atlanta pitcher Rocky Edwards to win, 5-3, at SunTrust Park. Edwards went 7 innings and allowed 2 runs. Picking up the save was Jim Kemp. He's now 3 for 4 in save chances. The 4th-place Cubs have won 6 straight games.

Chicago used the timely hitting of Victor Caratini to seize the win. The catcher stroked a 2-run single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Cubs on top, 5-3. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

Caratini told a Chicago Gazette reporter that he was "satisfied" with the win.
