The turning point:

Who did what for Rome: Tony Mueller was 2-for-3 with an RBI and William Beckwith drove in two runs.



On the mound: Fabian Williamson gave up three hits in six plus innings.

Game notes: The Braves (33-19) own the best record of the second half in the South Atlantic League, and hold a four-game lead over first-half Southern Division champion Asheville. Lexington is in third place and trails the Braves by 5½ games.

Next Game: The Braves host Lexington tonight at 7 p.m. for the second game of the four-game

series with the Legends.
