BRAVES NEWS

Tyrell Jenkins had an extremely rough first inning against the Rockies. He walked three batters (including the pitcher) and gave up four runs. He eventually exited the game in the fourth inning with the Braves down 7-0 and basically out of the game. This is despite the fact that the Braves walked nine times on the day. They only managed to get two runs, and the game ended 7-2. At this point, the entire NL West is a house of horrors for the Braves.
