Sale came on the field to begin his warmups, but they have unraveled the tarp in the outfield grass. He's just playing catch for now, seemingly waiting to see if the start of the game will be delayed.

They are removing the tarp. Looks like the game will start on time. Sale's warmup indicated he didn't think the start of the game would be delayed

This is Ronald's 36th career leadoff homer and the 15th of these that have come against the first pitch. He has eight homers through his first 80 at-bats this year.

Three runs on two hits and a catcher's balk. That's the term used when a catcher uses his equipment to stop a ball like Torrens did

Sale has a 1.23 ERA over his past 10 starts. A second straight Cy Young Award isn’t out of the question. Might not be a good week for Red Sox fans to see this one

Sale’s legend grew as he made a diving stop, finished an out shy of a shutout, strengthened his bid for a second straight Cy and helped the Braves extend what finally feels like genuine momentum mlb.com/news/chris-sal…

Didier Fuentes will join the Braves tomorrow to start against the Marlins. Fuentes is a 20-year-old prospect who has 48 strikeouts and 12 walks over 39.1 IP at three different levels this year. His addition allows the Braves to give everyone an extra day of rest the next turn

Didier Fuentes will be 20 years and three days tomorrow. He'll be MLB's youngest starter since LAD's Julio Urias was 19 yr, 362 days on 8/8/16 vs. PHI. He'll be the Braves' youngest SP since Mike McQueen (19 yr, 297 days) vs. LAD 6/23/1970.

Strider's four-seamer has averaged 97.2 mph in the first inning of both of his past two starts. This is near his first-inning average in 2023 (97.5 mph)

Strider looks like Strider again and Ozuna’s key hit on Tuesday might have been the turnaround moment for the Braves, who exited a sweep of the Mets finally feeling like themselves mlb.com/news/spencer-s…
