James Blasts Cubs, Braves Take Game 1, 9-8
With right fielder Devin James leading the charge, the Atlanta Braves got a road win over the Chicago Cubs, 9-8, in Game 1 of the Division Series today. James was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 doubles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2 at Wrigley Field to help Atlanta take a 1-0 lead in the best-of-5 series.

The game was all tied up in the top of the eighth, until James delivered big-time for Atlanta, stroking a dramatic run-scoring double off Amari Fridia. The game-changing hit put the Braves on top, 9-8.

"If you want to be considered a good team, these are the kind of games you have to win," said Atlanta manager Erick Abreu.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Wrigley Field in Chicago.
