It was all Philadelphia Phillies on Thursday night as the Atlanta Braves fell 14-4 for their 33rd loss of the season. Ian Anderson got the nod and lasted just two innings, surrendering seven runs in the second.
The Atlanta offense was able to plate four runs on nine hits, as Orlando Arcia, Adam Duvall, and Michael Harris II each added to their RBI totals. Adam Duvall’s seventh inning home run gave him his eighth homer in 23 games.
