Power outage and sequencing shenanigans sinks Braves 1-0

With Max Fried on the mound, the Braves tried to get the win in game 1 of 4 against the Phillies.

William Contreras and Austin Riley singled in the first, but the Braves couldn’t bring either of them around to score. The next baserunner of the game came in the bottom of the second, as Austin was unable to cleanly field a Realmuto chopper that was forgivingly scored a single. Dansby almost managed to grab the ball and throw out Realmuto at first, but the throw was a tenth of a second late. The Phillies catcher moved to third on a dribbler through the right side of the infield and then came home to score on a sac fly.
