Ynoa allowed one run and four hits while throwing 76 pitches. He struck out eight, equaling a season-high set June 23 at Reno for Triple-A Las Vegas.

Braves 6, Nationals 2: Right-hander Matt Wisler continued his late-season resurgence, throwing 5-2/3 strong innings in Atlanta's rain-shortened win over Washington.

Wisler (7-12) allowed two runs and five hits and struck out two. He did not walk a batter and was the beneficiary of two double plays. He threw only 66 pitches but did not return to the mound after a 97-minute rain delay, the first of two lengthy stoppages.
