Early on in the 2022 campaign, the Braves and their fans have been subjected to some real no-fun, frustrating games. This was another, as they fell 3-1 to the Nationals in a getaway day game at Truist Park. While we don’t have the full array of data live from Baseball Savant, fundamentally, the Braves had three walks and three hits in their offensive tries today, along with a .272 xBA. The Nationals had zero walks and five hits, and a .236 xBA. The Braves hit a homer; the Nationals didn’t. The Braves had three barrels (two of which went for outs); the Nationals had zero.
Braves can’t overcome ball-in-play misfortune, lose 3-1 to Nats
