Coaches quotes: ” Bennett struggled early and worked out of a jam in the first and then settled in and pitched really well. His defense made some good plays behind him as well. Zach Stolz played very well on defense tonight at first base. Richards made a key diving catch in the 7th to preserve the shut out. And Braxtin Birner made a nice catch on a soft line drive.”
The Braves are back in action on Wednesday at Rochester.
