On Friday, the Atlanta Braves will play the first game of their series with the New York Mets at Truist Park.
They will look to bounce back after dropping two out of three (also at home) to the St. Louis Cardinals.
UPDATE: The Braves won 5-3.

Also on Friday, news came out that a former Braves player had been designated for assignment by the Baltimore Orioles.
Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun wrote: “Anthony Nunez and Jeremiah Jackson are back. Orioles place Ryan Helsley on the 15-day injured list after his elbow injury, use his IL designation to bring back Jackson before his 15 days in Norfolk, and add Nunez to the bullpen. Chadwick Tromp DFA’d, ending 3-catcher system.”
Tromp appeared in just one game for the Orioles.
