Multi-HR Day for Johnson as Braves Overpower Red Sox, 9-2
The Atlanta Braves topped the Boston Red Sox by the score of 9-2, with the largest share of the credit going to first baseman Howard Johnson. Johnson belted 2 home runs, while adding 5 RBI and scoring twice for the Braves. Melido Perez got the win, improving to 2-1. He worked 6 innings, giving up 2 runs on 2 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 5. With the win, Atlanta pushes its record to 7-5.

Johnson contributed when he hit a grand slam in the bottom of the sixth. Coming with no outs and the bases loaded, the home run proved to be critical to helping Atlanta get the win.

"If you pitch well, you give yourself some opportunities," said Atlanta manager Will Henderson.
