Atlanta Beats Boston, 12-2
Good production from right fielder Kyle Tucker helped the Atlanta Braves topple the Boston Red Sox, 12-2. Tucker was 3-4 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs for the Braves. Robert Gasser, the winning pitcher, is now 5-0. He went 7 innings, allowing 2 runs on 6 hits, while fanning 9 and walking 0. The win elevated the Braves to 22-11.

Atlanta used the bat of Marcelo Mayer to get the win. The shortstop hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the second inning to put the Braves ahead, 3-0. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"I thought we played a nice game," Tucker told the Atlanta Times. "Good pitching, timely hitting, it was all there."
