Bullpen collapses as Braves lose to Cubs in extras

The Atlanta Braves took on the Chicago Cubs looking for a spark after a disappointing series against the Phillies. Spencer Strider has had a rough go of it as of late, but his last start was solid. The Cubs offense has been struggling recently so it was going to be interesting to see how these two teams matched up.

The Braves got the offense going early. After Profar flied out, Olson hit a rocket off the bat that ended up falling for a single. Ronald Acuña Jr. had a soft line out, but then Baldwin walked to put two on.
