The Phillies are in Atlanta to take on the Braves for the final three times this season. It was a rough start for Vince Velasquez (7-7) giving up two runs in the first inning, but he settled down, and kept the Braves off the scoreboard for the next four innings he pitched. The Phillies offense some up in the fifth, and tagged Dallas Keuchel for five runs that include a pair of two run homers by Rhys Hoskins (29), and Jose Pirela (1), and a Cesar Hernandez RBI ground out that out the Phillies up 5-2. The Braves got a run a run in the right on a Adeiny Hechavarria (7) home run, and another in the ninth in a Adam Duval (8) home run to make it a 5-4 final in favor of the Phillies.
