3 takeaways as Atlanta Braves finish off 4-game sweep of Pirates

A huge fifth inning off of Monday’s nemesis Joe Musgrove proved the be the power that the Atlanta Braves needed to take down the Pirates for the series sweep.

The strike zone was all over the place today, and that eventually led to the ejection of Braves manager Brian Snitker after a terrible strike three called on Ronald Acuna in the 4th inning.

Another quick note is the outfield defense was a problem today and has been for a while now. Matt Joyce took a terrible route to a fly ball which led to a 2 base error and that run eventually scored when Ronald Acuna tried to make a diving catch that was unnecessary.
