The loss snapped Atlanta's four-game winning streak and trimmed the Braves' lead in the NL West to three games over the San Francisco Giants, who beat Cincinnati 6-1. Atlanta entered the game having won 31 of its previous 37 games. "You're going to lose a few like that," Atlanta manager Bobby Cox said. Mike Stanton (4-6) retired the first two batters in the 10th before giving up a pinch-single to Dar-rin Jackson. Jeff McKnight followed with a single to right, Jackson holding at second.

CUBS 6, MARLINS 5: Sammy Sosa's run-scoring single in the seventh inning broke a tie as Chicago rallied for a Wrigley Field victory over Florida despite two homers by Orestes Destrade. Sosa slapped a liner to right field with two outs as the Cubs rallied from a 5-2 deficit. Vizcaino singled with one out and Rich Rodriguez relieved Richie Lewis (6-2), walking Mark Grace. One out later, Sosa put Chicago ahead to stay. Bill Brennan (1-1), called up on Sept.

10th from Triple-A Iowa, was the winner. GIANTS 6, REDS 1: San Francisco Giants stayed on the rebound as Todd Benzinger homered twice and John Burkett, winless for the last month, pitched six strong innings for a Candlestick Park victory over Cincinnati. The Giants have emerged from an eight-game losing streak that cost them first place in the NL West to Atlanta by winning their first two from the downtrodden Reds, losers of a season-high eight straight and 13 of 16. Benzinger, a former Red, drove in four runs while filling in once again for the injured Will Clark. Benzinger hit a solo homer in the third and a three-run homer in the fourth off Tim Pugh (8-15), his second two-homer game of the season.

Moises Alou underwent successful surgery to repair damaged ligaments in the left ankle of the Montreal Expos' outfielder. Alou fractured a fibula and dislocated his left ankle in a grotesque base-running accident Thursday night in a 4-3 victory at St. Louis. sian then relieved and Navarro, 0-for-ll since being called up from the minors, hit a single to right scoring the go-ahead run.
