Braves Score Late, Stun Cubs, 11-8
Dave Hollers added some punch to the Atlanta offense, helping them outmuscle the Chicago Cubs, 11-8. In the game, Hollers, who finished 3rd in the NL in OPS with 1.014 in 2040, went 1 for 4 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 4. The win belonged to Bernie Walker in relief. His record improves to 4-1. Chris Roth took the loss for Chicago. The save went to Chris Meigs, his 28th this season.

Atlanta used a timely hit from Marlon Bernstein to get the win. The second baseman stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Braves ahead, 9-7. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a difference-maker.

"We knocked the fire out of the ball," said Atlanta manager Willy Paredes. "The guys swung the bats pretty good, and that's fun to see."

Atlanta is now 66-52. Chicago is 60-59.
