ATLANTA—Sean Murphy drove in the go-ahead run with a bloop double in the seventh inning and the Atlanta Braves limited the Oakland Athletics to two hits Sunday in a 3–1 victory.

Charlie Morton allowed just one hit in six scoreless innings, but he ended up with a no-decision when the A’s tied the game in the top of the seventh inning on a home run by Zack Gelof.
