Braves Rally Past Nationals in Thriller

0:00It's April 23rd, MLB News Today starts now, AI powered and always on. The Atlanta Braves pulled off another thriller, rallying past the Washington Nationals 8-6 for their seventh win in eight games. Michael Harris the second smashed two homers, while Drake Baldwin and Matt Olson also went deep, powering the comeback from a 4-1 deficit. It all kicked off in the second, when Harris crushed a two-run shot of Zach Wattell, tying things up with help from Ronald Akuna Jr. sacrifice. Fly. Harris kept the momentum with a solo homer in the third, then Olson unloaded a three-run blast in the fourth to make it 8-4. National Span spelt the sting as their team dropped 6-10 after a short hot streak. Joy Wimmer notched his first big league pinch hit homer, and James Wood added his league leading ninth, but it wasn't enough to close the gap. Braves pitching held firm down the stretch, with Dylan Lee tossing a perfect seventh, and Robert Suarez nailing his second save in the ninth.

1:01Little took the loss after surrendering four homers, matching his career high and leading the majors with 11 given up this year. Looking ahead, the Natson Cade Cavalli to the Mount Thursday against JR Richie, who's getting called up for his MLB debut as Atlanta keeps rolling. Strong.
