Profar’s two-run homer off Nic Enright in the sixth inning was enough for the Atlanta Braves to beat the Guardians, 5-4, and complete a three-game sweep of the home team. The Guardians, who were one of baseball’s hottest teams a minute ago, have lost five of their last seven games.

The Guardians have played their best baseball of the season and have been one of the league’s top teams in the immediate aftermath of the 10-game losing streak they suffered before the All-Star break.

Michael Harris II homered and doubled, Nacho Alvarez Jr. and Nick Allen each had three hits and the Atlanta Braves beat the Cleveland Guardians 10-1.

The Cleveland Guardians have recalled left-hander Tim Herrin and optioned lefty Joey Cantillo to Triple-A Columbus. Cleveland made the moves on Sunday.

To say Sunday afternoon’s finale was an up-and-down affair for Jurickson Profar would be an understatement. In the third inning, the Guardians scored their first run when Profar dropped a fly ball from Kyle Manzardo that allowed Steven Kwan to score the game-tying run.

The Guardians’ once-promising playoff aspirations took a significant hit this weekend, as the Atlanta Braves delivered a three-game sweep at Progressive Field that left players, coaches, and fans facing a harsh reality check about this team’s postseason chances.
