The Atlanta Braves had to settle for a split in their four-game series against the Philadelphia Phillies failing once again in their bid for their first three-game winning streak of the season. Aaron Nola held Atlanta’s offense in check in a 4-1 loss Thursday night.
The Braves will continue their homestand Friday where they will begin a three-game series against the Miami Marlins. Thursday’s loss dropped the Braves record for the season to 21-21 and they will enter play Friday 7.5 games behind the New York Mets in the NL East standings.
