Braves vs. Dodgers Game 4: Can Atlanta’s Bats Save the Season?

The NLDS shifts to Truist Park tied 1-1, and the Braves have the pitcher they want most on the mound: Chris Sale.

They also look back at the bullpen’s huge Game 2 effort, from Ray Kerr and Didier Fuentes to Dylan Lee, why Michael Harris II has been Atlanta’s postseason star so far, and what Ronald Acuña Jr., Matt Olson and the rest of the offense need to do against the Dodgers.
