Drew Smyly Rebounds From Tough Start To 2021

Atlanta Braves pitcher Drew Smyly may have figured things out. The veteran lefty allowed just one run in six innings of work on Friday during the club's 6-3 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers.

Ronald Acuna Jr. Could Return Saturday

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (ankle) could return on Saturday.
