Braves Blast Nationals with Four Homers

0:00It's April 23rd, MLB news today starts now, AI powered and always on. The Atlanta Braves powered through a wild one, beating the Washington Nationals 8-6 with four home runs in their latest road win. Michael Harris the second smashed two of them. Matt Olson crushed the go-ahead three-run shot and Drake Baldwin kicked it off with a solo blast in the first. DDA Fuentes, the team's number three prospect, took the mound for his first start but got rocked early, throwing 39 pitches in the first, ending alone and giving up a three-run homer. He settled down for two scoreless frames but got pulled after 74 pitches over three innings total. Fans saw Harris heat up big time. His seventh career, two-homer game, and fifth bomb in his last ten outings. Baldwin's seventh homeer this year puts him in rare company with Braves legends like Chipper Jones and Hank Aaron for his hot start with 30 plus. Hits in strong counting stats through 25 games.

1:00Olson owned the moment again. His 14th homer in just 32 games in Nationals Park. While the bullpen trio of Dylan Lee, Tyler Kinley, and Robert Suarez locked it down with three clean innings to seal the deal. As the Braves chased six wins on this seven-game road trip, whispers are growing about number two prospect, J.R. Richey, making his big league debut in. The series finale tomorrow, especially after Fuente's uneven night.
