Jarred Kelenic hit a solo homer, rookie AJ Smith-Shawver worked 4 1/3 three-hit innings in his first start of the season and the Atlanta Braves topped the Chicago Cubs 3-0 on Thursday. The Braves have won two straight games and three of four after a four-game skid. Smith-Shawver, one of Atlanta’s top pitching prospects, combined with five relievers for a four-hitter as the Braves posted their major-league best eighth shutout.
Hendricks currently holds a 10.57 ERA.
Dansby Swanson tried to be helpful while he was on the 10-day injured list. No such worries now, not after Swanson was activated by the Chicago Cubs ahead of Tuesday's game against Atlanta. The Gold Glove shortstop had two hits and scored a run in a 4-3 victory over the Braves — Swanson's first big league team. Second baseman Nico Hoerner also returned after missing six consecutive games because of left hamstring tightness.
