Spencer Schwellenbach, Braves extend Padres' slump

July 13 - Rookie Spencer Schwellenbach retired the last 12 men he faced Friday night and worked seven strong innings as the visiting Atlanta Braves earned a 6-1 win over the San Diego Padres.

Schwellenbach (3-4) gave up just three hits and a run, walking one and striking out three, in the longest of his eight major league starts. Two relievers finished up as the Braves bounced back from a two-game skid.

Marcell Ozuna led the Atlanta offense, jacking a pair of solo homers to give him 26 long balls for the season. Orlando Arcia also homered as the Braves collected nine hits off three San Diego pitchers.
