Phils fall to Birds

UNDATED (AP) — The Atlanta Braves can move three-games ahead of Philadelphia for first place in the NL East, and they have baseball’s worst team to thank for the opportunity.

The Orioles avoided their 102nd loss as John Means scattered four hits over 6 2/3 innings of their 2-0 shutout of the Phillies. Cole Sulser and Tyler Wells finished up the combined four-hitter as the Birds kept Bryce Harper under wraps. Harper was 0-for-3 with two strikeouts.

Neither team scored after Ranger Suarez gave up consecutive RBI singles to Pedro Severino and Ryan McKenna in
