Cardinals Suffer 5-2 Home Defeat
The Atlanta Braves polished off the St. Louis Cardinals by the score of 5-2. The largest share of the credit belonged to center fielder Brandon Nimmo. Nimmo went 2-3 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 runs for the Braves. Atlanta has now won 4 in a row.

Atlanta used a clutch at-bat from Michael Conforto to capture the win. The left fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Braves ahead, 4-2. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"The vibe's good," said Atlanta manager . "We've got to keep it going."
