Mitchell Helps Atlanta Cruise to 14-3 Win
The Atlanta Braves got production from their entire lineup in an easy 14-3 win over the Texas Rangers. Player of the game honors went to third baseman Kevin Mitchell. Mitchell, who finished 2nd in the FL in extra base hits with 80 in 1990, slugged 3 home runs. He scored 4 runs and drove in 6. Bob Wickman picked up the win with 5.1 innings of work. He allowed 3 earned runs on 5 hits, while walking 3 and striking out 5. On the season, he is now 1-3. The 4th-place Braves have won 4 in a row.

Atlanta took a 8-3 lead on Marquis Grissom's 16th home run of the season. The grand slam home run, which Grissom hit in the top of the seventh, left Texas pitcher David Wells visibly frustrated.

"We had that killer instinct," Mitchell said after the game.
