Braves bash Twins starter Bailey Ober before storm delay and then breeze to 10-6 victory

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Matt Olson hit a three-run homer and a two-run double for Atlanta in the first two innings against Bailey Ober before the game was stopped by a thunderstorm, and the Atlanta Braves beat the sputtering Minnesota Twins 10-6 on Monday night.

Max Fried (8-7) endured the 86-minute delay for his first win since June 23, retiring 12 straight batters over a stretch bridging the rain and finishing five innings with one earned run allowed.

Travis d'Arnaud hit a two-run homer and Marcell Ozuna had two runs and two RBIs for the Braves, who emphatically ended Ober's streak of 11 straight quality starts with four runs before he recorded an out.
