Charlie Morton solid across seven Tuesday
by Steve Painter | Braves Correspondent | Tue, Sep 28th 11:10pm EDT
Charlie Morton pitched seven shutout innings against the Phillies Tuesday, allowing three hits and two walks while striking out 10. The Braves bullpen secured a 2-1 victory, and Morton earned the win and a quality start, his record improving to 14-6 on the year. He threw 101 pitches, 61 for strikes, and carries a 3.39 ERA.
Fantasy Impact:
It was only fitting that Morton took the mound in Game 1 of this three-game series, a crucial series that will likely determine the NL East champion. Morton has simply been the overall steadiest starter for the team this year, and he came through tonight big time. He's had 14 starts since the break, and 10 of those have been quality starts.
