Braves bounce back in sage manner to burn Cubs, 8-7

After taking a major beating during their doubleheader on Sunday, the Braves brought the bats to the ballpark on Monday and ended up taking down the Cubs in an 8-7 slugfest of a game.

The first inning of this game served as a palate cleanser for both the Braves and the fans who were brave enough to watch all 14 innings of their doubleheader debacle on Sunday. After scoring four runs on Zach Davies back on April 16, the Braves must have decided that it would be fun to equal that effort in just one inning of work.
