The Atlanta Braves knocked off the Pittsburgh Pirates, 6-3, in NL action at PNC Park. Atlanta pitcher and The United States, native Josh Collmenter had an outstanding performance. Joe Thatcher recorded the save. In save chances, he's now 1 for 1. The first-place Braves, at 78-63, lead the NL East Division by 7½ games.

Atlanta shortstop Elvis Andrus contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the fifth. With two down, he hit a fastball to center field for a 2-run single. It was his 115th hit of the season and put the Braves ahead, 4-1.

"I made some pitches when I had to," said Collmenter.
