The Diamondbacks still took the series in Atlanta, and went 3-3 on the road-trip. But a sloppy third inning paved the way for the Braves to dodge the sweep, on a muggy afternoon in Georgia. The D-backs must now await the outcome of tonight’s Angels-Dodgers game to see if they go into the break on top of the National League West.
In the early stages here, it appeared almost as if both teams had somewhere else to be for the next four days.
