BravesRain was on the forecast for much of the day, but the weather cleared to allow the Braves and Orioles to play their much anticipated match up on Wednesday night at Grant Park.  The Braves were very eager to get a win for their coach Paul’s birthday against the AL leading Orioles.

The Braves bats were ready as they scored 7 runs in the first 2 innings.  Conner Krahn led the Braves offense during the game by getting on base 4 times and scoring 3 runs, while Lockhart MacGregor, Aiden Cutrell, Jared Nivins and Tyson Sauve each reached base 3 times.
