The Atlanta Braves dropped the opening game of the National League Division Series to the Philadelphia Phillies 7-6. Late inning heroics were not enough to make up for the lackluster pitching and a relatively quiet offense.

Max Fried was on the bump, turning in arguably one of his worst starts of the season. He tossed just 3.1 frames and surrendered four runs. He struck out two and walked one.
