The Atlanta Braves faced a disappointing series against the San Diego Padres, despite initial optimism at the start of the season. They led 4-3 going into the seventh inning of the first game, thanks to home runs from Ozzie Albies and Austin Riley, but soon lost control. Throughout the season-opening series, the Braves displayed moments of competence but ultimately fell short, with challenges in pitching and missed offensive opportunities. Overall, the article conveys a sense of frustration but emphasizes that the series is now behind them.
With that being said, it could've been more as the Braves had a couple of fly balls that ended up landing in gloves instead of flying over the fence.
For the Braves, it sure seemed like for seven innings that this had all the makings of turning into a close-but-exciting victory for Atlanta to start the season.
This would be the last time this would happen during this series.
With this season, the best thing I can say about it is that it's over.
