Olson, the MLB home run and RBI leader in 2023, hit three doubles and drove in three runs, while Duvall, who signed just before Opening Day, had a crucial pinch-hit two-run double. Spencer Strider and the Braves' bullpen stifled the Phillies, and the team showcased its depth and balance. However, the Braves suffered a setback as All-Star catcher Sean Murphy left the game with an oblique strain.
