The Reds couldn’t finish a sweep, but they took two of three from the Braves in their first trip to the new SunTrust Park.
Some notes from Reds public relations on the series:
- The Reds won the first series at SunTrust Park after failing to take any of the final seven series at Turner Field (2010-2016).
- Adam Duvall made his second appearance at first on Sunday. Eugenio Suarez also played shortstop for the first time.
- With Braves catcher Tyler Flowers' grand slam on Sunday, the Reds have served up nine on the year, a new club record.
- Joey Votto reached base in every game, extending his on-base streak to 25 contests.
- Scooter Gennett's third grand slam of the year ties the club record. He has four career homers with the bases loaded.
- Gennett was caught stealing Saturday, but nine of the last 11 Reds attempting to steal have been successful.
- Suarez and Jesse Winker hit back-to-back homers on Friday, the fifth time this season a pair of Reds have done so.
