Entering Sunday, the Atlanta Braves are preparing for a rubber match against a fellow National League foe, the Pittsburgh Pirates. However, on May 11, the Braves are not quite where they expected to be.

Listen, my wife will never let me live it down if her team sweeps mine.

The Atlanta Braves got a win on Saturday against the Arizona Diamondbacks, and team manager Brian Snitker feels good about it. He especially feels good because Arizona Diamondbacks star Eugenio Suarez hit four home runs in the game, against Atlanta.
A former Atlanta Braves player had some sharp words for Ronald Acuna Jr. over Acuna’s recent social media post about manager Brian Snitker.
