The Braves will look to extend their winning streak to 15 games Friday afternoon when the face the Cubs in Chicago.

The win would tie the 2000 team for the franchise’s longest win streak in the post-1900 era. Tom Glavine had three wins and Greg Maddux added two as part of the Braves’ 15-game winning streak from April 16-May 2, 2000.

Here’s a look back at each of the 14 wins:

Game 1 -- Braves 6, Diamondbacks 0: After a gut-wrenching loss the night before, the Braves avoided a sweep with a victory in the series finale.

Game 2 -- Braves 13, Rockies 6: Travis d’Arnaud had two home runs and six RBIs in the first of a four-game series in Denver.
