The Cleveland Indians still own a five-game lead over Kansas City in the American League Central after running their winning streak to 10 games.

Lonnie Chisenhall belted a tiebreaking, three-run homer in the fourth inning and Jason Kipnis added a solo blast as the Indians ripped the Braves 8-3 in Atlanta. Mike Napoli was 3-for-5 with an RBI and two runs scored to back Trevor Bauer, who gave up two runs in six innings.

The winning streak is the Indians' longest since they won 10 straight in September 2013.
