Braves descend further into the darkness as offense falters

After yet another stretch of frustrating games for the Braves, they went into Saturday with an opportunity against a relatively weak team in the Miami Marlins.

Things did not start out well for Atlanta, however, with a 1-2-3 top of the inning from the offense, and Jazz Chisholm scoring on a walk, a groundout, a wild pitch, and a sacrifice fly. Dansby reached with one out in the second on a wild pitch strikeout and an Almonte single combined with a throwing error left Dansby and Almonte on third and second with one out. Contreras struck out and Inciarte popped out as neither were able to bring in a run.
