Well, serves me right for talking about how all sorts of balls were going to leave the yard in the preview for this game. Instead, just two balls left the yard, but one of them was the dagger in the heart of the beleaguered Braves as they dropped their third straight game.
When you combine Bronson Arroyo (second-worst pitcher in baseball coming into this game), the powerful Cincinnati offense, Mike Foltynewicz, and one of the most homer-friendly parks in MLB, you figure a lot of runs were going to score. Instead, the game was anything but.
