Chipper Jones solo HR puts us on the board.

I hope more are to come.

With Philly losing, this was a game we could have used to pick up ground. Those 2 errors in the 2nd inning really hurt.

Brandon Beachy
vs.
Matt Garza

Both have a 2.50 era during their last three starts.

Both gave up 2 runs the last time they faced each other.

Brian McCann starts things off early with a 3 run HR in the top of the 1st.

Beachy better execute after that gift.

Mac coming through for us. I think this takes a lot of heat off Beachy and he will pitch well.

The defense failed Beachy in the 1st inning.

However, Beachy let the Cubs get back in the game with a couple mistakes.
