The Atlanta Braves’ offense stayed hot Wednesday night pounding out 13 hits in an 8-4 win over the Philadelphia Phillies.
The Phillies made Charlie Morton work in the first inning as he stranded runners at the corners on a fly out by Jean Segura. Morton retired the first two hitters in the second, but then surrendered a solo home run to right by Odubel Herrera to stake Philadelphia to an early 1-0 lead.
The Braves answered back in the bottom half of the season when William Contreras connected for a solo shot to left just over the glove of Kyle Schwarber at the wall.
