Jarred Kelenic, Braves bid to salvage finale vs. Mariners

May 1 - There were no reports of water coolers being harmed after Jarred Kelenic struck out to end Tuesday's game in Seattle.

Which shows how far the Atlanta Braves' 24-year-old outfielder has come in the past year.

Kelenic and the Braves will wrap up a three-game interleague series Wednesday afternoon against Seattle, trying to salvage the finale after a pair of one-run losses to the surging Mariners.

Kelenic spent three up-and-mostly-down seasons in Seattle before being traded to the Braves in a salary dump last December.

The low point came last July when he suffered a self-inflicted fractured foot after kicking a cooler in the home dugout out of frustration.
