A couple of weeks ago, the Atlanta Braves embarked on a 13-game run of games that were solely in the NL East. Initially, it seemed like a tough task considering that they’d be seeing the Philadelphia Phillies twice during that run.

The Atlanta Braves are up 10.5 games on the Philadelphia Phillies and New York Mets — and up 6.5 games on the second-place Miami Marlins. Is the NL East race over?

ATLANTA — Zack Wheeler waited 253 days. What, then, were another 56 minutes? So, Wheeler sat through a rain delay, during which the Boston Red Sox stunningly fired manager Alex Cora (back to that shortly).

Chris Sale shut down the Phillies for the second time in nine days and won his 150th career game as the Atlanta Braves built an early lead and beat Philadelphia 6-2.
