Phillies and Braves Split Day-Night Doubleheader
Rafael Marchan enjoyed a big game on offense and defense as Philadelphia nipped visiting Atlanta 5-4 in the first game of a day-night doubleheader. Marchan’s first homer of the season and Kyle Schwarber’s 19th paved the way for the team’s 11th win in 12 games. Marchan was hit by a pitch to force in the decisive run in the bottom of the eighth before he threw out the potential tying run at second base in the ninth.
A.J. Smith-Shawver sustained an elbow injury and left in the third inning for Atlanta, which lost for the sixth time in seven games.
In the second game, Chris Sale pitched six scoreless innings as Atlanta routed host Philadelphia 9-3. Austin Riley homered, doubled, and drove in four runs for the Braves. Ozzie Albies knocked in three runs, and Luke Williams added two RBIs. Sale (3-3) allowed two hits and three walks while striking out eight. His final whiff—against Edmundo Sosa to end the sixth—was the 2,500th of his career.
Phillies starter Zack Wheeler (6-2), who entered with a streak of 22 2/3 scoreless innings, was charged with six runs in 5 1/3 frames. You can always check the MLB baseball odds and scores for the latest updates on these closely contested series.
Kyle Parker is the undisputed pace-setter a spotless 7-0 run has him sitting on a $903 profit—just edging the entire field despite working with the same or smaller stake sizes. Any time a capper strings together seven straight winners in MLB, it’s worth paying attention, but tread carefully: one loss will dent that 100 percent rate in a hurry.
