Wrong-way Guardians run themselves in 4-3 loss to Braves in 10 innings

If statements are made in late April, the Guardians were just about to make one before they ran themselves into defeat. In a matchup between the teams with the two best records in baseball, the Guards forced the Braves into extra innings for the second straight game. Austin Riley won it for the Braves with a single through the middle to score Ronald Acuna Jr. with the game winner. In the top of the 10th, Steven Kwan, the automatic runner on second base, tried to steal third and was an easy out.
