The Cubs responded in the sixth. Tony Campana led off with a single to left for Chicago's second hit of the game. He moved up on Bryan LaHair's bouncer to second and scored on Alfonso Soriano's two-out double off Randall Delgado.
Delgado left after Soriano's hit, posting his second consecutive solid outing. The right-hander allowed three hits, struck out five and walked three, but remained winless since he beat the Mets on April 17.
NOTES: Braves 3B Chipper Jones made a nice diving stop to rob Dempster of a hit in the third inning. ... Cubs president of baseball operations Theo Epstein on struggling reliever Carlos Marmol: "I haven't seen any signs of him backing down, so as long as he gives the effort and faces his challenges head on we're going to support him and help him get where he needs to be to help us." ... Bourn extended his hitting streak to 12 games.
