Notes & reviews

32-game hit streak for Dan Uggla, a new Braves record
1000th extra-base hit for Chipper Jones
Cubs pitcher Carlos Zambrano threw consecutive pitches to Chipper Jones inside; Zambrano's last pitch was a fast ball at Jones'thighs, which hit the backstop; HP umpire Tim Timmons immediately came out of his crouch and ejected Zambrano; Braves players came out of the dugout but Timmons yelled for them to go back; Zambrano had surrendered five homers in the game; when the game was over, he had cleaned out his locker and left, saying he was retiring
