Marcell Ozuna broke a scoreless tie with his 16th homer in the seventh, Max Fried threw eight strong innings and the Atlanta Braves beat the Washington Nationals 2-0 on Tuesday night. Fried outlasted Washington right-hander Jake Irvin, who set a career high with his 10th strikeout when Austin Riley ended the sixth inning by fanning for the third time.
The Atlanta Braves are looking for some better vibes right now. They won yesterday's matchup with the Pittsburgh Pirates to avoid a sweep, fueled by another dominant start from Chris Sale in a month of May that's been full of them, but the win was overshadowed by the season-ending ACL injury suffered by star Ronald Acuña Jr. Atlanta kicks off the first post-Acuña series of the season with the divisional-rival Washington Nationals in town for the first matchup between the two teams of the 2024 season. The Braves are sending veteran Charlie Morton (3-1, 3.35) to the mound against breakout lefty Mitchell Parker (3-2, 3.32). Lineups for the Atlanta Braves and Washington Nationals on Monday, May 27th
