De Paula Delivers Walk-Off Win for Braves
The Atlanta Braves withstood a fine game by Chicago second baseman Alexis Hernandez at Truist Park, to upend the Cubs, 8-6. Hernandez was 2-3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 3. Atlanta is now 59-98, Chicago 73-84.

Atlanta got a clutch hit from Josue De Paula. The pinch hitter launched a 2-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a kill shot.

De Paula described the clubhouse as "kind of rowdy" after the game.
