AJ Smith-Shawver has become the show in the Atlanta Braves system, and despite taking the loss he put up one of the best starts of his career. He handled the Durham Bulls across seven innings, touching 96.9 mph on the gun. Elsewhere David McCabe helped lead the Augusta GreenJackets to a victory, hitting his second home run in as many days as he keeps a torrid stretch of play going.
