Max Fried returns to the mound as the Atlanta Braves look to avoid a sweep when they wrap up a three-game series against the Houston Astros Sunday at Truist Park. The Braves dropped the first two games of their home stand and have lost three-straight overall. Atlanta has held leads in the first two games, only to watch Houston come storming back.
Fried will make his third start of the season in Sunday’s game. He started on Opening Day against the Nationals but suffered a strained hamstring during the fourth inning while covering first base that sent him to the injured list.
