Braves designated hitter Clint Eskridge put his stamp on his team's 10-9 win over the Boston Red Sox. Eskridge was 4 for 5 with 2 doubles and 2 singles, while scoring 3 runs for Atlanta in the contest. Atlanta pitcher Owen Murphy got the win, upping his record to 6-3. Sang-mok Kim got the loss. Atlanta, at 60-63, sits in third place in the National League East Division.

Tim Anderson had a big 2-run double for the Braves in the top of the second inning. With Atlanta leading 1-0 and the bases loaded, he got a cutter from Sang-mok Kim, who finished 2nd in the AL in innings pitched with 201.2 in 2026, and swatted a double to left. It was his 20th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Braves ahead, 3-0.

"The name of the game is scoring runs," Eskridge said. "We did a good job of that today."
