Atlanta Braves Minor League Playoff Recap 9/15: Max Fried’s Dominant Start Leads Rome to Championship

(1-3) Gwinnett Braves 0, (3-1) Scranton Wilkes/Barre 3

Rio Ruiz, 3B: 0-3, .271/.355/.400

Rob Wooten, RP: 5 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 8 K, 3.57 ERA

In a time of need, the Braves turned to Pitcher of the Year Rob Wooten to shut down Scranton and try to force a game 5 in the International League final. Wooten started them off with a fantastic first few, spinning perfection through 4 with 5 strikeouts. The story was told by the failure of Gwinnett’s offense, who failed to score a single run for the second straight game and ended the season on a run in which they scored 2 runs over 35 innings.
