AI Summary

Payton Tolle delivered an impressive pitching performance, limiting the Braves to two runs and four hits over eight innings with 85 pitches for a win.

Tolle needed just 85 pitches to get 24 outs tonight, finishing with four hits allowed, one walk and three strikeouts. He gave up a 421-foot homer to Drake Baldwin and had two flyouts that projected as homers in 15 and five ballparks, according to Statcast. Still, it was a pretty impressive showing, especially because he averaged the same 96.5 mph with his fastball in the eighth that he did in the first. Tolle is 2-2 with a 2.05 ERA through five turns, and he'll be a worthy mixed-league play next week against the Twins.
