Braves Roast Pirates, 14-1
The Atlanta Braves downed the Pittsburgh Pirates, 14-1, at Truist Park. Stellar pitching by Garrett Crochet had a lot to do with it. The left-hander, who is tied for 4th in the NL with a 1.05 WHIP, handcuffed his opponent all game. Crochet yielded 1 run over 6.1 innings to notch the win. He scattered 2 hits, walked 2, and struck out 6. His record improves to 15-10. Atlanta is now 75-85, Pittsburgh 73-87.

Corey Seager, who is tied for 9th in the NL in RBI with 97, chipped in a 3-run home run for Atlanta in the bottom of the seventh. For the game, the shortstop had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 2 runs scored, and 3 runs batted in.

Said Pittsburgh manager Jake S after the blowout loss: "They did pretty much every facet of the game better than we did and that's why we lost."
