Atlanta Braves News: Freeman’s elbow causing concern with playoffs looming

Atlanta Braves News

Dallas Keuchel allowed two earned runs over six innings but the Atlanta Braves’ offense wasn’t able to get in gear in a 4-1 loss to the San Francisco Giants. Atlanta falls to 96-61 on the season and will need to win at least four games on their upcoming five-game road trip to secure their first 100-win season since 2003.

Freddie Freeman exited Sunday’s loss to the Giants in the eighth inning due to more elbow soreness. The Braves announced following the game that Freeman will remain behind in Atlanta for treatment while the team travels to Kansas City for a two-game series that gets underway on Tuesday.
