Ynoa, Braves slink past Snakes in 5-4 win

Ronald Acuña Jr. went hitless in his return to the lineup, but no worries: his teammates had his back and delivered a 5-4 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Friday night to kick off a seven-game homestand. Huascar Ynoa pitched six strong frames and collected his first two major league hits, while Austin Riley and Ozzie Albies put key runs on the board with a pair of longballs.

The Braves got on the board early in this one against Arizona hurler Luke Weaver, as Austin Riley crushed a two-out, two-run homer in the second to give his team an early lead.
