Max Fried had to leave the game early Friday night for the Atlanta Braves, Kevin McAlpin of 680 The Fan Atlanta reports.
Snit came out to talk to the home plate ump after the bottom of the fifth. And McHugh is just starting to warm up so it appears as though Fried is departing with an injury and McHugh will get as much time as he needs to warm up. #Braves

Fried had been pitching well in the first game of a series versus the New York Mets that could go a long way towards determining who will win the National League East.
