The Braves got to dust off their best two starters, while their hitters had a chance to impress the most-famous hitting consultant in the game.

Also, Hall of Famer Chipper Jones, back with the Braves this spring as a hitting consultant, discusses a variety of topics including “superstar” Michael Harris, the 2023 Braves and MLB’s new rules.
