Sale wins MLB-leading 12th game, Duvall adds 3-run HR and the Braves beat the D-backs 6-2

PHOENIX (AP) — Chris Sale outdueled Zac Gallen with 5 1/3 solid innings, Adam Duvall hit a three-run homer and the Atlanta Braves beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 6-2 on Tuesday night for their fourth straight win.

Duvall connected for his three-run shot in the sixth, extending Atlanta’s lead to 5-0. The 441-foot homer was launched deep into the left field seats, ending Gallen’s night in frustration.

It was a good moment in a tough season for Duvall, who came into the game hitting just .184 with seven homers.
