Braves uncomfortably win 11-9, complete sweep of Marlins

The Braves once again beat the lowly Marlins, utilizing another offensive explosion in route to an 11-9 victory. The Atlanta attack was led by Freddie Freeman, who hit for the cycle and scored four runs, but this was a top-to-bottom effort that saw every position player in the starting lineup reach base. The Braves leave town with a three-game sweep during which they outscored Miami 25-11 and drew an absurd 24 walks.

The game began with starters Charlie Morton and Jesus Luzardo trading zeroes, though the Braves did have a runner on base in each of the first two innings.
