The Atlanta Braves’ roadtrip got off on a sour note Monday night in a 6-2 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks. Atlanta’s defense let down Spencer Strider in the first inning and it didn’t get much better as he allowed four hits and five runs in 4 1/3 innings. Atlanta got a solo home run from Austin Riley but finished the game 0-for-10 with runners in scoring position.
The series will continue Tuesday with Charlie Morton squaring off against Humberto Castellanos.
