A rough fifth inning defensively sent the Atlanta Braves to a 7-2 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies Wednesday afternoon.
Charlie Morton was locked in early as he breezed through the first three innings allowing just one hit to go along with four strikeouts.
The Phillies threatened in the fourth as J.T. Realmuto reached on a swinging bunt with one out and then advanced all the way to third on a single by Darick Hall. However, Morton got Nick Castellanos to ground a first pitch curveball to Dansby Swanson who started the 6-4-3 double play to end the inning.
