Spencer Schwellenbach Picks up Complete-Game Win Against Brewers

Ronald Acuna Jr and Michael Harris II led the way for the Braves offensively with a home run and two RBIs each, while Ozzie Albies and Drake Baldwin added RBIs of their own.

Schwellenbach stayed strong throughout the game, striking out two of three batters in the final inning. His final pitch, which was grounded out by Jake Bauers, clocked in at 104 miles per hour.

This was Schwellenbach's first outing since June 6, when he pitched six innings in a loss to the San Francisco Giants, striking out four batters but giving up six hits before being pulled. 

Complete games for pitchers are getting increasingly rarer, as more thought is being put into protecting pitchers' arms. Schwellenbach's outing marks only the ninth time this season a player has pitched a complete game. The most recent was only a day prior, when Cincinnati Reds Pitcher Andrew Abbott went the distance in a 1-0 win against the Cleveland Guardians, in his first-ever complete game.
