Braves' Kyle Wright dazzles in NLDS start, at top of game

ATLANTA -- Atlanta Braves starter Kyle Wright has a piece of advice for struggling pitchers.

"I think that you're just never as far (away) as you think you are," Wright said before taking the mound for Game 2 of the NL Division Series against the Philadelphia Phillies on Wednesday night. "When I was struggling (and) I got to as low as I did, I felt like where I'm at now was forever away. And really it wasn't."

Where Wright is now is at the top of his game.

The right-hander shut down the Phillies over six innings while giving up just two hits and a walk in a 3-0 win that helped Atlanta even the best-of-five series at 1.
