Nice to know that we can beat the Braves.

[LoneStarPhan]

Nola gets the well earned and deserved win. Neris gets the save with a three K 1-2-3 inning. So much better when not run out for the third day in a row.

OK, I will admit that going 2-0 to Donaldson leading off in the ninth had me getting edgy but after that, Neris was clearly in control

Bruce had the big hit for the Phillies, the 2 RBI double. It was enough with the great pitching tonight.

Great start to the series in Atlanta.

[EastFallowfield]

Had 'em all the way, Harry! Now 5-2 vs the Braves.

[Patchmk88]

Big time win. Need one more in the next 2.

[HopeSpringsEternal]

I give Kapler credit for adjusting the rotation to start Nola tonight (and Sunday, last game before the all-star break). Nola delivered tonight with an ace-worthy performance. Great start to the series; big start for Pivetta tomorrow.
