The Atlanta Braves used a solo home run by Charlie Culberson and more dominant pitching by Sean Newcomb to defeat the San Diego Padres, 1-0 Saturday evening at Sun Trust Park. Thanks to a Nationals’ loss, Atlanta now leads the NL East division by 2.5 games.
Culberson’s home run came in the fifth and was his third of the season. This one wasn’t a walk-off as his first two were but ended up being just as important.
