SAN FRANCISCO -- Atlanta Braves interim manager Brian Snitker thought young right-hander Mike Foltynewicz won more than just a ballgame Saturday night.
He noted that the 24-year-old should benefit from the conditions under which he excelled at AT&T Park.
Now he's hoping for the same for his young Sunday starter, Aaron Blair.
"This environment is great. What a great place to play," Snitker said after Saturday's 3-1 win. "Any time you experience this atmosphere here, it can do nothing but prepare you to be a major leaguer."
Blair might not have been adequately prepared when he made his major-league debut earlier this season for the Braves.
