The Atlanta Braves would gladly accept this as they defend their World Series title.

Adam Duvall, a 33-year-old Louisville native and U of L alum, turned on this pitch Wednesday in an exhibition game against the Boston Red Sox, and left no doubt.

Duvall has 151 career home runs as he enters his ninth major-league season. He was traded from Miami to Atlanta midseason in 2021 and hit two homers in a World Series victory over Houston.
