Sean Murphy’s late homer not enough as Braves fall to Nationals 3-2

The Atlanta Braves were unable to generate much offense in the first game of Sunday’s doubleheader as they fell 3-2 to the Washington Nationals.

The Braves jumped out to an early lead in the second. Matt Olson walked to start the inning, but was erased on a ground out by Sean Murphy. Eddie Rosario followed with a single to the right center gap and Murphy kept on running to third to put runners at the corners. A sacrifice fly by Kevin Pillar made it 1-0.

On the board!
