There’s little doubt age slowed both Atlanta Braves receivers in 2019, and Brian McCann’s surgically repaired knees were an issue on both sides of the ball.
Tyler Flowers led MLB in passed ball futility, allowing 16 of the 24 pitches that didn’t find the glove make their way to the screen.
The Atlanta Braves also tied for at #21 in wild pitches (70). According to the rules, wild pitches fall on the shoulders of the pitcher, and a pitch that touches the dirt in front of the plate and gets by the catcher is a wild pitch even if an average catcher would handle the pitch.
