ATLANTA — Zack Short made the most of his first start with Atlanta by breaking a scoreless tie with a run-scoring double in the sixth and the Braves spoiled another strong start by Chicago rookie Shota Imanaga to beat the Cubs 2-0. Short filled in at third base while Austin Riley was held out with tightness in his left side. Short's double into the right field corner drove in Travis d'Arnaud. Imanaga threw five scoreless innings, extending his team record to eight consecutive starts to begin his career without allowing more than two runs. Imanaga lowered his majors-leading ERA to 0.96.
