To start the first of 18 innings of baseball, the third baseman for the Atlanta Braves reached all of them.
Subsequently, he gave Atlanta a 1-0 lead over the Philadelphia Phillies.
Austin Riley sent a ball that deflected off the wall and it was deep to the left centre field. Riley appeared to have a two-out triple, but Jake Cave in left field for the Phillies botched the play, sending Riley racing home.
The throw Turner made went away from the catcher Garrett Stubbs, so as a result Riley was able to score on the play.
A triple was scored on the play, and Jake Cave was given credit for the error. Consequently, it was a poor start for the Philadelphia Phillies.
The Atlanta Braves are confidently leading the National League East.
They have already secured a spot in the postseason. The incredible team also aims to complete the year with MLB’s best record.
The Braves have the most wins with 93, and the second team with the most wins is the Baltimore Orioles. The Los Angeles Dodgers take the third spot with 87.
