Braves Minor League Recap: Owen Murphy dazzles in first start of the season

While the major league club continues to tear through its schedule, things aren’t going so swimmingly for the rest of Atlanta’s affiliates. After all teams from Gwinnett to Augusta were swept on Friday, Braves minor league teams stand at a combined record of 8-22 to start the season. As those numbers aren’t exactly inspiring, there were some significant individual performances to point out from yesterday’s slate so let’s get into it.

(2-10) Gwinnett Stripers 4, (8-5) Memphis Redbirds 9

Box Score

  • Forrest Wall, LF: 2-5, 2B, RBI
  • Justin Dean, CF: 1-2, 3B, 2 RBI, 2 R, 2 BB
  • Jared Shuster, SP: 6 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 3 BB, 8 K
  • Braden Shewmake, 2B: 1-4, 2B

The trend for the Gwinnett Stipers continued to head in the wrong direction on Friday as they dropped their 8th game in a row.
