The Braves secured a narrow 3-2 victory in an extra-inning game, relying heavily on their pitching staff, particularly AJ Smith-Shawver. While the bullpen delivered crucial scoreless innings, the offense struggled to generate runs after a solid start to the game. The winning run was attributed to a groundout and a wild pitch rather than a direct hit, which highlighted the team's current offensive issues despite their previous improvements. Their reliance on pitching was evident in this closely contested game.
The Braves required two scoreless zombie-running innings from the bullpen and a lucky run to score to win Saturday's game with three total runs.
AJ Smith-Shawver twirled another gem and the bullpen did more than it's job, but man the offense was a struggle after a promising first three innings.
