The Chicago Cubs will try and take some of their home success on the road as they begin a three-game series on Tuesday in Atlanta against the Braves.

The Cubs have the best home record in the National League at 45-17 but have turned it around on the road of late, winning their last five. SBG Global reports that early MLB betting has the public taking Cubs on the Road.

The Cubs swept the Braves at Wrigley in June and outscored the Braves 20-9 in that series.  The Braves are playing better of late though, winning four of their last seven and nearly swept Arizona.

The Braves go with Charlie Morton on Tuesday.  He is 3-5 on the season with a 5.70 ERA.  He has pitched well in his last two starts including a 6-4 win over Arizona.  The Cubs go with Rich Harden on Tuesday.  He is 1-1 with a 2.10 ERA since joining the Cubs.
