Braves
The Braves didn’t play today but there was still an affect on the Braves from today’s games. The Braves entering the day were 4 out of 1st, and a half game out of second. The Braves left today 3.5 out of 1st, and 1 game out of 2nd. Next for the Braves is Tuesday night as they start a 3 game series against the Cardinals starting at 8:15 in St.Louis.
The Phillies won which kept the Braves from being tied for second. They won on the backs of a 9th inning rally that included hits from Bohm, Segura, and Realmuto. It also included an argument over whether the score was 6-5 or 7-5. The nationals didn’t go down easy as they gave Ian Kennedy a warm welcome with a 2 run home run to lose by 1 or 2 runs.
On the other hand the Braves had a great time watching the Mets. The Mets played the Marlins and had a warm welcome to Miami. The Marlins hit a grand slam in the first, but the Marlins didn’t pitch well there starter didn’t perform well as he gave up 3 runs in 5 innings. From there the Marlins bullpen took over giving up 0 runs in 4 innings. This gave the Braves a chance to gain another game on the Mets entering Wednesday.
Hawks
The Hawks didn’t have near as successful of a day. The Hawks started free agency day, and did not make any splash which may have been the right one. The Hawks did resign Solomon Hill, but that is not what Hawks fans wanted. They were expected to resign John Collins today, but couldn’t quite come to an agreement. Although, there is some good news, the Hawks have extended their superstar point guard Trae Young. Trae was give a 5 year 170 million dollar extension. This keeps the Hawks main core together at least for now, as we will see what the Hawks do with Collins.
Falcons
Not much of any news on the falcons today as it was just another day in training camp. The falcons did get Kobe Jones back from the COVID list, who isn’t too much of a gain back. For the Falcons it’s just looking forward towards their first preseason game against the Titans on August 13. While it’s just a preseason game, it may be a bit personal as they are playing Julio Jones for the first time he isn’t in a Falcons Jersey.
Atlanta United
For Atlanta United it can’t get much worse. Atlanta United today tried to get a Brazilian forward in Joao Pedro, but Joao turned down the contract. Atlanta United has just been trying to recover from a heart breaking loss on Friday as Orlando scored goals in the 79th and 87th minute to seal the game. Next for United is Wednesday Night at 7:30 against CF Montreal in Atlanta.
