PHILADELPHIA — Matt Olson doubled three times, including a bases-loaded drive in a seven-run eighth inning that rallied the NL East champion Atlanta Braves past the Philadelphia Phillies 9-3 in their season opener. Michael Harris II had three hits and snapped an eighth-inning tie with an RBI single off José Alvarado that made it 3-2 and ignited a breakout inning. Alvarado allowed five runs and Connor Brogdon gave up two. Pierce Johnson tossed a scoreless seventh to earn the win for Atlanta in a game delayed a day by rain.
