MIAMI -- Matt Kemps September slugging wont get the Atlanta Braves into the postseason. Its a nice sign heading into 2017, though.Kemp hit two home runs to power the Braves to a 6-3 win over the Miami Marlins on Thursday night.Hes a really good player, Braves interim manager Brian Snitker said. Hes a big, strong man and when he swings that bat it goes.Kemp is hitting .400 (22 of 55) in his last 14 games and has 33 home runs and 104 RBI on the season, his highest totals since the 2011 season when he was NL MVP runner-up with 39 homers and 126 RBI.Its been good, Kemp said. Honestly I wish we could be in the playoffs right now and in a playoff race. It would be way more fun doing those type of things and being in a race, but for us to finish strong and show everybody what the offense and what this team is capable of going into the final weeks of the season is very important for next year.Freddie Freeman singled in the third inning to extend his hitting streak to 26 games and drove in two runs for the Braves, who have won six straight for the third time this season.The whole roster is helping the pretty good week that weve had, Snitker said. Just playing with a lot of enthusiasm and energy. Were down to nine games left in the season and theyre getting after it. Theyre playing like were trying to grab a wild card.Atlantas Josh Collmenter (3-0) pitched seven innings and allowed two runs.Im not going to blow it by a lot of guys, Collmenter said. Im not going to strike them out. Its using my defense to my advantage and keep them off-balanced and uncomfortable in the batters box as much as I possibly can.Mauricio Cabrera pitched the ninth for his fifth save in six chances.Ender Inciarte, Wednesdays hero with the game-saving catch at the New York Mets, went 2 for 4 with a triple and scored twice.J.T. Realmuto homered for the Marlins, who cut the deficit to 6-3 on an RBI double by Martin Prado in the eighth. Justin Bour flew out with two on to end the threat.Kemps multihomer game was the 10th of his career and third this season.Kemps second homer was a solo shot to left field in the sixth. It was caught on a bounce by Miami Heat forward Justise Winslow , who also threw out the ceremonial first pitch.Who comes to his first baseball game in Miami and catches a baseball? Kemp said. Thats pretty cool.Freemans streak is the longest of his career and the longest active streak in the majors. It is the fifth-longest for the Braves since moving to Atlanta in 1966. Freeman has also reached base in 42 consecutive games.Freemans two-run triple and Kemps two-run homer broke the game open in the third, giving the Braves a 5-0 lead.You get down early its tough on your club, Marlins manager Don Mattingly said. To be down five after a couple innings puts you in a bind.Marlins starter Jose Urena (4-8) allowed five runs and four hits in three innings.Ive been leaving the ball a little high when Ive been down in the count, Urena said.INCIARTES CATCHInciartes impressive catch in Wednesdays 4-3 win at the New York Mets is the highlight of his potential Gold Glove-winning season.If that dont win him a Gold Glove, I dont know what will, Braves interim manager Brian Snitker said. Ive been saying it all along, hes unbelievable.In addition to his impressive defensive plays in center field, Inciarte is also one of the hottest hitters in baseball since the All-Star break with a major league-leading 94 hits.Hes kind of burst onto the scene here and everybody is aware of him now and rightfully so, Snitker said. Hes as good as it gets.NEXT UPBraves: RHP Matt Wisler (7-12, 4.93 ERA) will start Fridays game at Miami. Wisler has allowed two runs or fewer in three of his last four starts including an eight-inning, one-run performance at Arizona on Aug. 25.Marlins: RHP Andrew Cashner (5-11, 5.27) will be looking to toss at least six innings for just the second time in his last nine starts.

SPA-FRANCORCHAMPS, Belgium -- Esteban Gutierrez has declared he will be racing in F1 next season, though he refused to be drawn on whether that is with existing team Haas.Haas plans to announce its driver line-up in early September but it remains unclear whether it will retain Gutierrez alongside Romain Grosjean. The Mexican driver is still searching for his first points of the 2016 season after a frustrating first half of the year, which included four 11th-place finishes.When asked about his future in the Spa paddock on Thursday, Gutierrez said: Yes I know. I will be driving.It is an exciting moment, isnt it? Everybody is asking what question marks and everything, so it is good. It is where you start to discover where the opportunities and chances are, and things start to move around. Lets see.After joking he could be driving a cab around Mexico City, he was then asked if he was referring to a race seat, replying: Of course! I want to be racing. There is no other option.When Gutierrez clarified he was definitely talking a race seat, and not a reserve or test role, he wwas then asked if that race seat was in Formula One, to which he said: Yes! In F1.ddddddddddddLater on Thursday Haas boss Gutenther Steiner faced the press and was asked about Gutierrezs comments and whether he could be referring to another year at the American team. He started by saying Haas has not spoken to the Mexican driver about his future yet.I dont want to go into any speculations, Steiner said. We are fine, we are very calm about drivers, we havent got a driver problem, I would say.There will be a time when we announce the drivers, but I dont know if hes got anybody else! We actually havent spoken to him or anybody else, its a bit of a status quo at the moment.When it was pointed out to him that Gutierrezs comments appeared to be quite cryptic, Steiner replied: I didnt say Ive got the seat, so that question is for him, not for me! I need to speak to him, because if hes going somewhere I will have to ask him I hear youve got a seat! ' ' '
