On May 2nd, Rocky's jumped out to a six-nothing lead over the Braves, right at Cours Field, and manager Walt Weiss' first game back there calling shots. They piled on five runs in the first inning with two walks and five hits, then tacked on one more in the second thanks to Mickey Moniacs, four, hundred, and 39-foot solo homer. Weiss Day cooled, despite the early hole, knowing Cours plays different with his huge outfield and balls dropping everywhere. Braves started chipping away in the fourth when Matt Olson crushed his tenth homer of the year, a four-fifteen-foot shot to right. They added an unearned run in the seventh to keep the pressure on. Then came the eighth inning fireworks, and Lana loaded the bases with three walks. Mauricio Dubon ripped a one-out triple to right to play three, and make it six-five, and Austin Riley's sacked fly tied it up at six. Weiss' steady approach at this hitter's paradise kept his squad in the fight, proving you just got to play smart baseball no matter the score. I'm Cory with the story. That's your MLB news today update, AI-powered and always on.
