Slugger’s first hit back with Atlanta ties game, ignites rally in eighth inning

53 minutes ago

ATLANTA — Jorge Soler knows a thing or two about clutch hits in a Braves uniform.

The outfielder, acquired from the Giants at the Trade Deadline, hit a game-tying RBI single in the bottom of the eighth inning on Friday night, which set the table for Austin Riley and Marcell Ozuna.

Riley followed Soler with a double to put two in scoring position for the dangerous Ozuna, whose sacrifice fly wound up being the game-winner in the Braves’ 5-3 victory over the Marlins at Truist Park.

Orlando Arcia continued his torrid run at the plate, going 2-for-3 with a homer in the fifth and an RBI single in the eighth to provide insurance. Arcia has a career-high 13-game hit streak.

Braves starting pitcher Spencer Schwellenbach got off to a rough start as he allowed a two-run homer in the first and a solo shot in the third. But the rookie was nails from there and didn’t allow another run. He went seven innings and struck out 10 without issuing a walk.
