Final: Braves 4, Phillies 3
The Phillies, losers of three in a row, have seen their four-game cushion for a playoff spot drop to just two thanks to two tough losses against Atlanta. With no help from the Yankees or Diamondbacks, the two teams facing off against the Brewers and Padres respectively this weekend, it’s starting to get a little uncomfortable for a Phillies team trying to break an 11-year postseason drought.
It was the Ronald Acuña Jr. show once again. He drove in all four runs for the Braves and saved a couple on a fantastic play in the outfield.
