Atlanta lost 10-6 in a wild one to the pesky Washington Nationals Friday as they begin the last series of the 2023 regular season.
The Braves have locked up everything there is to lock with, including the division title, the first round bye, best record in the NL, and best record in all of MLB. Needless to say, outside of some records they could still set and personal achievements, the only thing the Braves are playing for in this series is to stay healthy. Which is why it was no surprise the starting lineup was missing a couple of regulars when it was announced.
