Ken Henderson hit a homer and Mike Vail batted in one run and scored another to lead the Cubs to a 4-2 victory over the Braves. After Henderson's homer in the second inning, the Cubs added an unearned run in the fourth. Vali then singled and scored in the sixth before accounting for the Cubs' last run with a single in the seventh. [The Sporting News]
