St. Louis ? The only thing missing on another huge night for the Atlanta Braves’ offense was an extra-base hit from Chipper Jones.

Brian McCann hit a grand slam, and leadoff man Wilson Betemit was 4-for-6 with a homer and five RBIs in a 15-3 victory Monday night that snapped the St. Louis Cardinals’ seven-game winning streak.

Jones had to settle for a share of the major-league record for extra-base hits in 14 consecutive games, settling for three singles and two RBIs.

He shares the record set by Pittsburgh’s Paul Waner in 1927. The Braves third baseman has a 17-game hitting streak, and during his run he had eight doubles, a triple and seven homers.

“I knew it was going to come to an end at some point, but at least I got my name up there,” Jones said. “I’d like to have it to myself, but I’m not going to be disappointed with a 15-run outburst.”

Manager Bobby Cox knew Jones was tied for the record, although he believed it was a different Hall of Famer.

“His name will always be there with Tris Speaker, and that’s good enough for me,” Cox said.

Adam LaRoche was 4-for-4 with a homer and three RBIs, Jeff Francoeur had three hits, and reliever Jorge Sosa homered for the Braves, who have won a season-high six straight and scored in double figures the last four games, totaling 51 runs in that span.

“It’s pretty amazing,” starter Horacio Ramirez said. “I hope this keeps going until October.”
