The Braves' woes have continued for another night at least, as their losing streak to kick off the 2016 season is now at seven.
BRAVES NEWS
The Braves have now played seven games and still have yet to record their first victory of the 2016 season. Once again, the Braves came tantalizingly close to victory (with a solid performance from Jhoulys Chacin contributing to the cause), but a few miscues led them to defeat. Atlanta had a golden chance to put some runs on the board in the top of the eighth inning, but a strikeout from Freddie Freeman (who is in a pretty serious slump to start this season) and a double play from Jeff Francoeur led to a squandered bases-loaded opportunity.
