Sean Newcomb takes the mound for the Braves in the ninth inning with a 4-0 lead over the Dodgers and three outs away from a no-hitter. He is scheduled to face Logan Forsythe, Cody Bellinger, and Chris Taylor. He has thrown 117 pitches, a career high for him, 70 for strikes.

Update: Forsythe flies out to left for the first out.

Update: Bellinger falls behind 1-2. He fouls off three 2-2 pitches in a row, works the count full, then pops out to right for the second out.

Update: Taylor falls behind 1-2, Newcomb getting a high call and a foul ball high. Taylor then hits a hard grounder past the third baseman for the first hit of the game. That’s it for Newcomb, but it was an outstanding outing.

Update: The Dodgers get a second hit, but the Braves win 4-1. The gain on the Phillies and extend their lead on the Nationals, as both those teams were shutout on Sunday.
