Kyle Wright joined an exclusive club of Atlanta Braves pitchers Saturday, when he picked up his 20th win in his club's 6-3 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park.
Wright is now the seventh pitcher to win 20 games in a single season in Braves' history, joining the ranks of Phil Niekro, Tom Glavine, Greg Maddux, John Smoltz, Denny Neagle and Russ Ortiz.
The Braves' last 20-game winner is Russ Ortiz, who won 21 games in the 2003 Major League Baseball season, when he placed fourth in National League Cy Young award voting and was named an All-Star for the only time in his career.
