Matt Olson’s seventh-inning home run gave Atlanta the first lead; Trent Grisham answered in the eighth; Ha-Seong Kim scored the go-ahead run in the 10th on Michael Harris II’s single to right. Raisel Iglesias earned the win (1-2); Tyler Kinley finished the 10th for the save. Atlanta improved to 71-47 and remained alone in first place in the NL East, 8.5 games ahead of Philadelphia.

BRONX, N.Y. — The seven-game heater met a Cy Young problem in the Bronx.

ESPN’s box score and game wrap show the New York Yankees beat the Atlanta Braves 5-4 on Saturday afternoon at Yankee Stadium. Gerrit Cole outdueled Chris Sale in a billed matchup of recent Cy Young winners. Cole improved to 6-5; Sale fell to 12-7 despite six solid innings. David Bednar notched the save (26).

How the pitching lines read

Sale worked six innings, allowing five hits and three earned runs with two walks and eight strikeouts on 103 pitches (64 strikes). His ERA sat at 2.20 after the outing — still elite, still not enough on a day the Yankees stacked timely contact and two late home runs.
