Braves News: Vaughn Grissom makes 2023 debut, Orlando Arcia on IL, and more

Shortstop Vaughn Grissom made his 2023 season debut on Friday evening as the Atlanta Braves routed the Kansas City Royals, 10-3. The ball was flying in Kauffman Stadium, with the Braves launching five home runs to pave the way to an easy victory.

In his first at-bat, Grissom ripped a double down the right field line and collected a two-out RBI in the top of the first.

Grissom was not overly impressive defensively, though, as he committed a run-scoring error.
