Austin Riley, Ronald Acuña lead team effort as Braves prevail in 11 innings BOSTON – After a tough weekend in New York, the Braves needed a victory. It didn’t come easy, but they defeated Boston, 9-7, in 11 innings o...
Charlie Morton - Surrenders five runs Morton did not factor into the decision Tuesday, allowing five runs on six hits and one walk over six innings against the Red Sox. He struck out seven.
Impact Morton was a victim of the long ball Tuesday, surrendering just six hits over six innings. Three of those were home runs which accounted for four of his five runs allowed. The veteran righty otherwise looked good, as he walked just one batter and struck out seven while generating 12 whiffs. He carries a 4.26 ERA and 1.21 WHIP into his next scheduled start against the Mets next week

Orlando Arcia - Heading to IL Arcia will be placed on the injured list after suffering a left hamstring strain during Tuesday's win over the Red Sox, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.
Impact Arcia gave Atlanta the lead with an RBI double during the 10th inning, but he injured his hamstring while coming into second base. He came off the bag and was tagged out before being helped off the field. The 28-year-old has been operating as the primary second baseman with Ozzie Albies (foot) already sidelined, and Ehire Adrianza is now likely to step into a starting role.

Eddie Rosario - Held out Tuesday Rosario is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Red Sox.
Impact Rosario and Robbie Grossman are working in a left field platoon, so with southpaw Rich Hill on the bump Tuesday for the opponent, Grossman will get the start and Rosario will open the game on the bench.

Ronald Acuña Jr. - Back in business Acuna (lower body) is in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Red Sox.
Impact Acuna was scratched from the lineup for Atlanta's last game Sunday due to some soreness, but he pinch hit in that contest and is again ready for a full fine innings following a team off day. As he usually does, Acuna will man right field and hit leadoff Tuesday night.

Darren O'Day - Shifts rehab to Triple-A Atlanta transferred O'Day's (calf) rehab assignment from High-A Rome to Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday.
Impact O'Day, who struck out a batter in a perfect inning during his lone appearance for Rome on Friday, will likely pitch in one or two games for Gwinnett before coming off the 15-day injured list as soon as this weekend. The veteran right-hander turned in a 4.15 ERA and 1.34 WHIP in 21.2 innings out of the big-league bullpen this season before going on the 15-day injured list July 13 with a left calf strain.

Jake Odorizzi - Should stay in rotation Odorizzi (4-4) was dealt the loss in his Atlanta debut in Game 1 of a doubleheader Saturday with the Mets. He struck out four over 4.2 innings and was charged with three runs (two...
Impact Though Odorizzi wasn't especially effective or efficient with his pitch count in his Atlanta debut, it looks like he'll maintain a spot in the rotation moving forward after Ian Anderson was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday. According to David O'Brien of The Athletic, Anderson will remain on the taxi squad and start one game of another doubleheader this upcoming Saturday in Miami, but manager Brian Snitker said the right-hander will return to Gwinnett following the twin bill in light of his recent struggles. Odorizzi, meanwhile, had generally pitched well prior to being acquired from Houston last week, so Atlanta won't pull the plug on him as a starter after one substandard outing. He's expected to make his second start with Atlanta in the other doubleheader game against the Marlins this weekend.

Bryce Elder - Sent back to minors Atlanta returned Elder to Triple-A Gwinnett following Saturday's doubleheader with the Mets.
Impact Back in the majors for the first time since late April, Elder appeared in long relief in Atlanta's 8-5 loss in Game 1, covering 2.1 innings and striking out two while allowing three earned runs on five hits. He'll settle back into a starting role as he returns to Gwinnett, but he's unlikely to pick up additional starts with Atlanta this season unless the big club loses multiple rotation members to injury.
