Braves 2, Twins 0

MINNEAPOLIS — Lucas Harrell pitched six innings, and Adonis Garcia homered to lift the Braves in a matchup of the worst teams in the majors. A.J. Pierzynski doubled and scored against his original team. Behind the plate, he helped guide Harrell to his first scoreless start in the majors since June 9, 2013. Pierzynski also threw out the fleet-footed Byron Buxton trying to steal third base in the third inning, the first time Buxton was caught in eight attempts this season.
