Andrus Powers Braves Offense
The Atlanta Braves beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 9-8, at Turner Field 1997-2016. The Braves got a fine performance from shortstop Elvis Andrus, who went 3-4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 3 times and drove in 3. The Braves, at 39-51, inhabit third place in the NL East Division.

David Murphy drove in one run for Atlanta. The 33-year old left fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the eighth. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 6-6 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Brandon Cumpton. It was his 44th RBI of the season.

"Both teams had plenty of clutch hits," said Andrus. "It made for an exciting game."
