Cincinnati Reds starter Danny Salazar was locked-in. He led his team to a win over the Atlanta Braves, 3-1. The winning pitcher was Salazar, now 3-1. He tossed 6 innings of 5-hit ball, while walking 1 and fanning 3. Ken Giles nailed down his 6th save.

In the bottom of the sixth inning, third baseman Joey Gallo came through big-time for the Reds. With Cincinnati leading 1-0, he belted a solo home run.

"Baseball is about momentum," said Gallo, "and we feel we've got it in our favor after that win."

The Braves fall to 8-14 and continue their uneven start to the 2018 season.
