Kyle Wright, baseball\u0027s wins leader, threw six brilliant innings to outduel Zack Wheeler as the Braves evened their NL Division Series.
Wright, a former first-round draft pick who struggled to get past Triple-A, came into this season with a record of 2-8 in the majors. He totally turned that around, going 21-5 to win three more games than any other big league pitcher.
It turned out to be the final pitch of Wright’s 83-pitch gem, in which he struck out six with one walk. The right-hander who grew up in metro Atlanta wasn’t the same after Acuna finally trotted down to first base. Then, it was Travis d’Arnaud grounding one up the middle for another run-scoring hit before Wheeler finally got the third out.At least the wild-card Phillies are finally heading home. Game 3 is Friday at Citizens Bank Park, where Philadelphia will play for the first time since a regular-season loss to the Braves on Sept. 25.
