Spencer Strider strikes out 10 as Braves sweep Phillies

Spencer Strider turned in another spectacular performance and the Atlanta Braves completed a three-game sweep of the Philadelphia Phillies with a 5-2 win Sunday afternoon at Truist Park.

The Phillies made Strider work early, but he was still able to keep them off the scoreboard. Strider walked Kyle Schwarber to lead off the game, but then retired the next three hitters in order including back-to-back strikeouts of Rhys Hoskins and Bryce Harper. Strider again walked the leadoff man in the second issuing a free pass to Brandon Marsh, but again retired the next three hitters in order.
