Cubs aim to shake off stunning loss to Braves
  + stars: | 2023-09-27 | by ( Field Level Media | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
The Cubs squandered a six-run lead and lost 7-6 when right fielder Seiya Suzuki whiffed on a fly ball in the eighth inning. He hit a two-run triple in the loss and is hitting .364 (51-for-140) over his past 37 games. Taillon has not faced the Braves this season. Atlanta is six homers short of tying the major league record set by the 2019 Minnesota Twins. That leaves him one short of matching the modern-era franchise record (since 1900) set by Eddie Mathews in 1953.

"I thought Matt would be the guy to break the record,” Jones said last weekend in Atlanta when his number was retired. Olson hit a solo shot in Atlanta's 7-6 win over the Phillies in 10 innings on Tuesday, tying the team record Jones set in 2005. Olson was raised in the Atlanta area and grew up a fan of Jones and the Braves. Olson hit two homers a night earlier against the Phillies, and the milestone 50th had to be retrieved from a fan. Olson, who also has a 10-game hitting streak, entered the game on pace for 56 homers and 143 RBIs.
