5 Straight Wins for Braves
Turner Field was the site of a remarkable pitchers' duel.

Philadelphia wasted a solid 8-inning effort from starting pitcher Carlos Silva, losing to Atlanta, 1-0, at Turner Field. Atlanta reliever Cliff Politte, who finished 4th in the VBL in saves with 41 in 2001, was credited with the win. His record goes to 4-0. Carlos Silva took the loss for Philadelphia.

Atlanta took a 1-0 lead on Andruw Jones's 19th home run of the season. The solo home run, which Jones hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Philadelphia pitcher Carlos Silva visibly frustrated.

"Our pitching was the difference tonight," Jones said.

The current losing streak for Philadelphia has reached 4 games.
