    Freddie Freeman spent the previous four seasons playing for an Atlanta team that averaged 90 losses a year.

    Now that the Braves are back challenging for a division title, the All-Star first baseman knows his club can't afford any long losing streaks.

    "It's been four days, so I thought this was a big win for our team," Freeman said. "I thought we played a quality baseball game today and hopefully we can carry that into this Philly series."

    Freeman hit a two-run homer and drove in three runs, Touki Toussaintpitched into the sixth inning and the NL East-leading Braves snapped a four-game skid with a 7-3 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday.
