Game Preview

The Chicago Cubs will have a lot to play for when they make their only visit to Atlanta this season to begin a three-game series Tuesday with the Braves, who have some unfinished business of their own.

The Cubs (82-74) are trying to nail down one of the National League’s final wild-card spots. They moved into a tie for the second wild-card position with the Arizona Diamondbacks’ loss Monday to the New York Yankees. Chicago and Arizona are a game ahead of the Miami Marlins.

There is less drama for the Braves (100-56), who are trying to hold off the Los Angeles Dodgers for the No. 1 seed and guarantee home-field advantage throughout the National League playoffs. Atlanta has a 3 1/2-game lead with six games remaining over Los Angeles in that race. The Braves also have a three-game edge over Baltimore in the race to determine home-field advantage through the World Series.
