Travis d’Arnaud continued his power binge with another home run, and Bryce Elder returned from the minor leagues to throw 6 2/3 scoreless innings and help the Atlanta Braves beat the Miami Marlins 3-0 on Monday.
The Braves won for the seventh time in eight games, and they improved to 3-1 against the Marlins this season. Miami has alternated wins and losses through the past five games.
d’Arnaud homered for the fifth time in his past three starts, with his two-run blast in the fourth inning opening the scoring.
