Jared Shuster earned his first win of his career as his Atlanta Braves beat the Seattle Mariners 3-2 Sunday afternoon at Truist Park. The rookie out of Wake Forest pitched six innings and struck out seven batters en route to the victory.

The only run Shuster allowed was a solo homer to Jarred Kelenic.

Meanwhile, Mariners pitcher George Kirby took the loss, his third of the season. Kirby went seven innings and stuck out six.

The Los Angeles Dodgers will visit Truist Park Monday through Wednesday this week and then division rivals, the Philadelphia Phillies, will pay a visit to Atlanta for four games starting this Thursday.
