Cubs edge Braves to begin grueling road trip

Thursday was supposed to be a much-needed day off for the Cubs. But due to a rainout in May, Chicago finds itself in a stretch with 23 games in as many days, with Thursday beginning an 11-game, four-city road trip. Despite the tough straits, the Cubs found a way to emerge victorious once again in a 5-4 nail-biter against the Braves at SunTrust Park.
