Rome survives Greenville rally for 6-5 Independence Day win

The near capacity crowd at State Mutual Stadium on Independence Day didn’t have to wait for the post-game fireworks to see explosions, as the Braves’ bats churned out a dozen hits in Rome’s 6-5 win over Greenville.

Atlanta reliever Eric O’Flaherty got an inning of work, starting for Rome in a perfect inning of work.  O’Flaherty stuck out two in the top of the first.

Max Fried put in a solid four innings, keeping the Drive scoreless on four hits, striking out six, and only walking on batter.

Every single batter who came to the plate for Rome managed a hit in the game.  Austin Riley and Carlos Castro both got two RBI’s each.  Ray-Patrick Didder, and Jonathan Morales also had an RBI each in the game.
