The Atlanta Braves rallied from a six-run deficit to defeat the Chicago White Sox 11-10, winning nine of their last 11 games. Michael Harris II and Jurickson Profar each hit two-run homers; Profar has four homers in his last three games. Harris is on a 12-game hitting streak, batting .471 (24-for-51) with 10 extra-base hits and 17 RBIs during the streak. The White Sox recorded season highs with 19 hits and scored 13 runs in the opener, and Kyle Teel homered and drove in four runs but Chicago has lost five of six. Atlanta will start Hurston Waldrep (3-0, 1.02 ERA) against Martin Perez (1-2, 3.09). Waldrep has allowed two runs over 17 2/3 innings since being recalled, including six scoreless innings with seven strikeouts vs. Cleveland.
"He's been unbelievable," Braves manager Brian Snitker said of Harris. "Just what he's doing, the consistency, and how he kind of found what he's doing has been awesome to see."
"I thought we did a lot of good things," Teel said. "Hit the ball really well. And sometimes it just happens. I don't think anyone is happy about this. This stinks. You just have to think what's next. We have a game tomorrow, and that's what we are focused on."
