Coming off of a tough loss Friday night, the Braves were hoping to level the series against the Astros behind Kyle Wright on Saturday night. Framber Valdez and the Astros lineup is a formidable opponent though.
The Braves offense didn’t produce anything other than a single and two stolen bases from Ronald Acuna in the first three innings. Framber Valdez wasn’t allowing any contact to be elevated and was striking out a number of Braves. Kyle Wright wasn’t his sharpest early on, but managed to match Valdez, keeping the game scoreless through the top of the fourth.
