Offense goes silent, defense collapses in 4th straight loss for Braves

The Atlanta Braves couldn't hit or field effectively in a 1-0 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies.

Friday night was the picture of frustration for the Atlanta Braves. To sum things up, the Braves fell to their fourth consecutive defeat with a 1-0 loss at the hands of the Philadelphia Phillies, but in reality, a simple glance at the boxscore (even a 1-0 result) didn't quite do this one justice.

For starters, the Braves did not scratch with a hit until the fifth inning. Against an "ace"-level pitcher, that may have been slightly less frustrating, but Atlanta was blanked by none other than Aaron Harang.
