Simmons powers Braves to win over Brewers

As the Atlanta Braves spend the regular season’s final week fighting to gain postseason home-field advantage, star shortstop Andrelton Simmons helped them to another win.   Tuesday night, Simmons produced his third walk-off hit of the season and provided the Braves a much-needed 3-2 win over the Milwaukee Brewers at Turner Field. With their 24th last at-bat win of the season, the Braves strengthened their bid for home-field advantage by maintaining their half-game lead over the St. Louis Cardinals in the race for the NL’s best record. Because Atlanta owns the head-to-head tiebreaker over St. Louis, its magic number to clinch this luxury is four with five games remaining. The Atlanta Braves are 93-64 on the season.
