The Atlanta Braves will be looking to get their offense back on track in Game 2 of Sunday’s doubleheader after Zac Gallen held them in check in the opener.
Dansby Swanson appeared to tweak his wrist while tagging Nick Ahmed on a stolen base attempt in the fourth inning. Swanson stayed in the game to hit in the bottom half of the inning but then exited. However, Brian Snitker said following the game that Swanson was fine and that he was removed on the double switch in hopes that Grant Dayton would be able to go two innings in relief.
