Trevor Rogers delivered a strong pitching performance for the Baltimore Orioles, throwing 6 2/3 scoreless innings with exceptional control, allowing only one ball in 18 pitches during their 2-1 victory over the Atlanta Braves. Jackson Holliday contributed significantly with a two-run homer and a perfect 4-for-4 batting performance, helping the Orioles complete a series sweep against the Braves. This loss marks the ninth defeat in 10 games for Atlanta, who have struggled offensively, scoring one or no runs in six of those games. The Braves now stand 11 games below .500 at 39-50, a level of underperformance not seen since their 72-90 finish in 2017, the last season they missed the playoffs. Rogers has been a key acquisition for Baltimore, boasting a 1.57 ERA and 0.87 WHIP over five starts this season, including three starts with six or more scoreless innings. The Braves' star player Ronald Acuña Jr., who had been a strong hitter against Rogers in the past, was absent from the lineup in this game.
