August 3 - The Atlanta Braves hope Grant Holmes can add to his feel-good story on Saturday night when they send the 28-year-old rookie to the mound against the visiting Miami Marlins in the third game of the teams' four-game series.
The Braves have won the first two games of the series and improved to 7-1 against Miami this season after Friday's 5-3 come-from-behind win.
Holmes (0-0, 2.54 ERA) will face Miami's Kyle Tyler (0-2, 4.74) in a matchup of right-handers.
Holmes was a first-round draft pick by the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2014. He fought through injuries and bounced around the minor leagues.
