The Dodgers have the best record in the majors and are in the midst of one of the greatest two-month runs in major league history, but the Braves must look at that and go, pfft. Because the Braves, of all teams, have made them look like mere mortals during that otherwise torrid stretch. Tyler Flowers hit a two-run, two-out pinch-hit homer in the eighth inning Wednesday to lift the Braves to a 5-3 win against the Dodgers at SunTrust Park, their third win in two weeks against a Dodgers team that has lost to no other team since July...

On a night that will be remembered as the debut of both Ozzie Albies and Lucas Sims, the final result was not a favorable one for the Atlanta Braves. The team never led on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Dodgers and, much like the misery in Philadelphia over the weekend, Atlanta fell by a final score of 3-2. Sims performed admirably in his first MLB start, allowing three runs (and six baserunners) across six innings of work. The young right-hander did not yield a single walk, though he only struck out three, and Sims’ performance was strong enough to...

The Salt Lake Bees scored eight runs in the third inning and raced to a 13-4 win over the Nashville Sounds in the series finale Tuesday afternoon at First Tennessee Park. The eight-run frame was the theme of the series for the Bees who scored 10 runs in the sixth inning in Sunday night’s win, and seven runs in the eighth inning of last night’s win.
