Arrieta tosses 6 scoreless in Phillies' 5-0 win over Braves
Jake Arrieta pitched like the healthy ace the Phillies needed for three years. Arrieta tossed six shutout innings for his first win in more than a year and Jay Bruce and J.T. Realmuto each homered to lead the Phillies past the Atlanta Braves 5-0 Saturday night. Arrieta (1-1) tossed three-hit ball and struck out six for his first win since June 30, 2019.
