13 runs not enough to overcome nightmarish pitching from Braves against D-Backs

From the first inning to the last, the Atlanta Braves’ pitching staff was completely overwhelmed by the Arizona Diamondbacks as the Braves lost a 16-13 slugfest to open the three-game series in Cobb County.

All the way back in the first inning of this one, we got our first sign that this was probably going to be a weird one. Corbin Carroll brought in Arizona's first run of the game on a triple that bounced near the plate and managed to make it into the outfield. The second run came on an error and just like that, the Braves went into their half of the first inning down a pair of runs.
