Atlanta Baseball Party with Tenitra, Grant & Maria: Are Better Days Ahead for Atlanta Braves?

For the second time this season, the Atlanta Braves were shut out 4-0 by the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday. Tenitra Batiste, Grant McCauley, and Maria Martin try to explain the causes behind the Braves’ recent struggles. What led to the uncharacteristic outing from pitcher Max Fried? Despite a lead-off triple from outfielder Michael Harris II, the Braves couldn’t capitalize throughout the night on offense. What led to those struggles?On a more positive note, manager Brian Snitker said pitcher Ian Anderson is working his way back but there is no updated word on when exactly he’ll hit the mound again. Will Anderson’s postseason success boost the back end of the Braves’ rotation? Will Anderson be the much-needed fifth starter in the rotation, and if not, can the Braves get something done at the trade deadline? In terms of encouraging trends, the Braves are hitting the ball hard and far, it’s just not yet translating into wins. What else can Snitker tweak to get things back on track?The Braves will host Ludacris Night at Truist Park on September 4 when they face the Colorado Rockies, where the Atlanta rapper will throw out the ceremonial first pitch along with a bobblehead giveaway for the first 15,000 fans. Tenitra and Maria discuss which Atlanta artist should be next on the list to get a bobblehead night.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Tax Network USAReduce your tax debt and get help from a team of licensed tax professionals call 1- 800-549-1000 or visit TNUSA.com/lockedon.LinkedInRight now, you can try LinkedIn Sales Navigator and get a sixty-day free trial at LinkedIn.com/LOCKEDON.PolicygeniusCheck life insurance off your to do list in no time with Policygenius.
