Briefly

Braves' bats break out in 11-5 win
"Bryce Elder walked Jose Ramirez in the first, but struck the next batter out to start the game with a scoreless frame. Ronald Acuna nearly made my prediction true in his first at-bat, hitting a ball that might have been a homer in another park."
"The Guardians went single-walk-single with one out in the fifth, taking a 2-1 lead ahead of Cleveland's two most dangerous hitters in DeLauter and Ramirez. Elder walked DeLauter to load the bases for Jose Ramirez, which is exactly the type of situation you want to avoid against the Guardians."
"Ronald finally hit his first homer of the season, on a moonshot to left field, tying the game up at 2 runs, making my pregame prediction come true. Drake Baldwin followed Ronald's solo shot with a line drive single, still with no outs."
"Matt Olson made good on that situation with a 111.6 MPH moonshot of his own over the Chop House on a 3-0 count, as 3 batters turned a 1-2 deficit into a 4-2 lead against Cecconi."
