Life can be like a box of chocolates, but a departure from Bryce Elder after mid-June 2023 is roughly … a beginner Bryce Elder after mid-June 2023. Combine this with the fact that the Braves of Atlanta played a relatively fast game after having used a large part of their lower to ensure an extra-in-in victory yesterday, and the mandate for this game was clear: using the Elder and Zach Thompson for the mandate for this game was clear enough: using the Elder and the Zach Thompson for the mandate for this game was clear enough: using the Elder and Zach Thompson for the mandate for this game was clear enough: using the Elder and Zach Thompson for the mandate for this game was clear enough: using the Elder and Zach Thompson for the Mandate for this game was clear enough: The Elder and the Zach Thompson for the mandate for this game was clear enough: using the Elder and Zach Thompsor made appeal, and whatever happens.
Well, what happened was that the brave ends ended up a predictable delay, and although they had two late circuits, it was not quite sufficient. It is therefore the number ten loss in books, and still no consecutive victories for the team this season. There is probably a kind of philosophical discussion to have at the moment when you enter strategic stop-loss, but the brave do not seem very interested in this discussion, even after undoubtedly need to have a bunch of times last year.
But, before moving around, let’s go back to the game. The braves took a quick 1-0 advance against Taj Bradley in the first, as Austin Riley Bloop, Marcell Ozuna Walk and Matt Olson Bourncer through the combined inner field to sequence a race together. Bradley then walked Ozzie Albies, but withdrew Bryan from Cruz and Jarred Kelenic.
After that, much did not happen for a while. Bradley and Elder worked around a diffusion of blows for a few images, and the Rays equaled the game at the bottom of the third on a simple soft flare, a hard bouncer through the inner field and a fly fly.
The bottom of the fourth was a strange setting. After a simple through the inner field, and a unsuccessful (but close) blow to the first, Christopher Morel found himself in third row while Drake Baldwin’s attempt to throw him in second position went very, very wide. Kameron Misner followed with a weak bouncer in Olson, who threw in Baldwin for an outing on the plate (which required a rereading review to leave the right call to rest). It seemed that it would be a huge bargain for Elder and the Braves, but Danny Jansen, who had a miserable beginning until 2025 so far, jumped everywhere on a lead at the first pitch of the elder and struck a ball of absolute silo, more than 100 mph but 40 degrees in the air, pulling him on the left field line for a two -round homer.
Things were also temporarily bizarre boring in the fifth, while Marcell Ozuna struck a hard lining with Michael Harris II flowing on the field (due to a complete count) and one, but just at the stop-up, for a double end of the end.
In the sixth row, Elder was deeply in the third time by order, but with the brave already dragging and what seemed to be a mandate to let him eat all the sleeves, especially given his small number of steps, things were mainly out of the reach of the brave. Elder actually started this frame by doubling its total stick withdrawals, but Morel then hung a change under the area above the fence on the left for another somewhat atypical circuit. However, Elder persevered, and persevered, I mean, “abandoned another race” thanks to a single stolen base and a bloop struck by Jansen.
During all this time, Taj Bradley did not really sweat the brave, who largely made weak withdrawals. Elder finished with a 4/0 k / BB ratio (somewhat surprising) and two circuits allowed (maybe much less surprising). Bradley continued his solid work with a 7/2 k / bb ratio.
Mason Montgomery worked an easy summit of the seventh in relief from Bradley, and Zach Thompson arrived after the departure of Elder and published a walk in advance, but this runner found himself blocked in third position. In the eighth, the braves showed some signs of life with a few solo strokes in barrels: Ozuna took Edwin Uceta in depth with a withdrawal, then Albies followed two strikers later. At that time, the Braves dragged two points.
After Thompson obtained a withdrawal from the stick to start the bottom of the eighth, for any reason, the brave decided to inform their “saving the enclosure of the surveys” by bringing on Pierce Johnson. This movement was invalidated, but not really because of pitching: there was only one, a volley, and what should have been a flying routine ball at the raw, but there was in the place a rupture on the ground field. “This capped the score at 6-3 in favor of the shelves. Baldwin had a double blow in the ninth, but Pete Fairbanks closed the game with little.
The Rays may remember this game on the line like the one where Jansen turned his fortune, when he went 3-in-4 and placed four of their six points. The brave … will probably not remember this game at all, because that is almost what happens when you designate it the game “Elder Pitch and hope that everyone will rest even if it is April 11”. The series continues tomorrow afternoon with AJ Smith-Shawver to face Drew Rasmussen.
