Freeman, Braves rout Phils 10-2, push for playoff home field

PHILADELPHIA -- Freddie Freeman hit three doubles in a four-hit performance and drove in three runs as the Atlanta Braves kept up their push for home-field advantage in the playoffs, routing the Philadelphia Phillies 10-2 Friday night.

The NL East champion Braves improved to 90-70, coming off three straight seasons of at least 90 losses. They will face the NL West champion in the best-of-five Division Series -- Colorado (90-70) leads that division and holds the tiebreaker over the Braves to host Game 1.
