''My flight was at 11:30, but that doesn't mean I got any sleep last night because my son was screaming his head off,'' Freeman said. Continue to Article

The Blair Pitch Project started to show results for the Atlanta Braves. Using a revised windup developed during a brief trip to the minor leagues, Aaron Blair won for the first time in 13 major league starts and helped the Braves slow the New York Mets' wild-card chase with a 7-3 victory Monday night. Acquired from Arizona along with Dansby Swanson and Ender Inciarte in December's trade that sent Shelby Miller to the Diamondbacks, Blair had been 0-6 with an 8.23 ERA in his first 12 big league starts, including 0-2 in three outings against the Mets.
