Loss Extends Chicago Losing Streak
Both teams had their opportunities, but in the end, the Atlanta Smoke got the win.

The Smoke faced a stiff challenge from Chicago pitcher Keisuke Nishida, but persevered to claim a win at Gold Sox Field. The final score was 4-2. Nishida went 8 innings and allowed 4 earned runs. Atlanta reliever Corbin Jameson was credited with the win, to go to 1-1. Keisuke Nishida took the loss for Chicago.

A crucial at-bat came with runners on 1st and 2nd and two out in the top of the fourth inning. That's when second baseman Melito Báez, who is tied for 4th in the PL in extra base hits with 16, drew a walk. The Smoke went on to win.

"At the end of the day, it's always about your starting pitcher," said Atlanta skipper Scott McMahon.

Chicago's current losing streak is now 8 games.
