Atlanta Braves on a roll after slow start to season
The Braves are playing like the best team in baseball after a shaky start to the 2022 season.

Austin Riley has also been excellent. Riley is batting .260 with 15 home runs and 34 RBIs.
On the pitching side, Max Fried and Kyle Wright have had breakout seasons. Max Fried is 6-2 with a 2.64 ERA, and Kyle Wright is 6-3 with a 2.39 ERA. The Braves will look to keep their winning streak alive with two more games against the Pirates this weekend. For more news and updates, go to the Sportskeeda Baseball page.
