Austin Riley, Ronald Acuna power Braves to 3-2 victory behind a dominant Kyle Wright

After three extremely frustrating losses, the Braves needed to get back to winning against the bad and injured Rockies.

Kyle Wright got the start and struck out two in the top of the first, working around a Charlie Blackmon walk. After an Acuna strikeout, the Braves offense got rolling in a very favorable matchup, with a Dansby walk and an Austin Riley homer.

William Contreras singled with two outs but was thrown out at home on a double that was absolutely scalded by Michael Harris.

After that, both pitchers were pretty good through four innings, with only the occasional baserunner.
