Series Lead Cut to 1 for Chicago After 8-4 Loss
The Atlanta Braves have closed some of the gap between themselves and the series-leading Chicago Cubs, winning 8-4 at Turner Field 1997-2016 today. Braves designated hitter Jamey Carroll was 2-2 with 2 singles and 2 walks. He scored 4 times. The win cuts the deficit facing the Braves to 2-1 in the best-of-7 Wild Card Series.

In the bottom of the fifth, Atlanta third baseman Mike Lowell had a productive at-bat. With the bases loaded and one out, Lowell stroked a 2-run single to left. It made the score 5-3, Atlanta. For the game, he was 1-4. He drove in 2 runs.

"We're one game closer to our goal," Atlanta manager said later. "It isn't any more complicated than that."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Turner Field 1997-2016 in Atlanta.
