The Atlanta Braves were going for the three-piece sweep vs the Los Angeles Dodgers as Braves Country is still trying to get to that .500 mark and in the race in the NL East. The Dodgers trying to create some distance between them and the 2nd place in the NL West San Francisco Giants were hoping starter Mike Bolsinger would answer the call!

After the Braves scored the first run in the 3rd on a Cameron Maybin ground out it was 1-0 Atlanta. Then in the 5th after a Yasmani Grandal two-bagger and a ground out by Carl Crawford moving Grandal to 3rd Alberto Callaspo singled home Grandal tying the game at 1-1.

Still in the 5th J-Roll dba Jimmy Rollins doubles home Callaspo making it 2-1 Dodgers. After Bolsinger struck out Joc Pederson with two out hits an RBI single pushing the Dodgers lead to 3-1 the final score.

Bolsinger goes seven giving up just one run on three hits moving to 7-4 in 2015. Julio Teheran for "Hotlanta" falls to 6-5 going seven allowing three runs on six hits. LAD moves to 54-42 which is just 3 games ahead of the Gigantes in the West. The Braves six back of the Nats at 45-50 in the NL East.
