Going into the bottom of the seventh inning of yesterday’s rubber match between the Braves and Giants, the Braves were actually within two runs of San Francisco following a massive dinger from Freddie Freeman. Unfortunately, the bottom fell out completely for the Braves in the seventh, and what was a 5-3 game eventually turned into a 13-3 debacle once the dust had settled. Atlanta eventually lost 13-4, and the good news is that there are no more west coast games for the Braves this season. Good riddance.
Sunday wasn’t good for Aaron Blair in his return to the big leagues.
