Braves Win, 5-1, at St. Louis
Atlanta took on St. Louis in front of a lively crowd.

Atlanta starter Matthew Boyd put a stranglehold on the St. Louis offense. The left-hander had complete command of his fastball in leading the Braves to a 5-1 win. With the win, Atlanta raised its record to 29-22.

Atlanta used the timely hitting of Keston Hiura to capture the win. The second baseman socked a 2-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Braves ahead, 4-1. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"We'll relax tonight and enjoy this win," said Hiura.
