The Chicago Cubs will try and take some of their home success on the road as they begin a three-game series on Tuesday in Atlanta against the Braves.

The Cubs swept the Braves at Wrigley in June and outscored the Braves 20-9 in that series. The Braves are playing better of late though, winning four of their last seven and nearly swept Arizona.

He is 3-5 on the season with a 5.70 ERA. He has pitched well in his last two starts including a 6-4 win over Arizona. The Cubs go with Rich Harden on Tuesday.
